just done this on mine mate,its a dry joint on the window lift ecu,thats down behind the glove box unplug the plugs open the end of it with a screw driver DONT DROP IT ON THE CRASH SENSOR and slide the circit board out look at the solder joints you will see a dodgy one,resolder it and replace it and your windows will work once more
