Auto electrician Randburg

Post by J0NN0 »

Morning peeps.

On Wednesday I took my lupo to TK Cables to have my passenger window mechanism checked out as it wasn't working. After 2 hours of them servicing it and replacing a few parts, they were unable to set the limits on the window. And the swtich now works in reverse, up is down and down is up.

This this is the message i received the from TK cables:

"I’m not familiar with the Lupo, but on most VW’s the window functions are controlled by a BCM. When we have had problems with windows that did not want to accept the limit settings in the past, the auto electrician has helped us to set these via the diagnostic machine, by going into the BCM. Whichever auto electrician you go to, just ask them to check the BCM with a diagnostic machine for you (assuming the Lupo has one)."

Does anyone know a good VW Auto electrician preferably in the Randburg area?

Thanks bud, I went to them Friday after seeing your post. They unfortunately were so busy and wanted me to come back Monday and check my car in. Was hoping to find someone to help me on the day. I'll maybe go back one Friday afternoon again and hopefully catch them on a day they aren't so busy.

I've heard good things about them, haven't had a gap to use them myself yet.

Hopefully they sort you out.
