Re: Passenger side windows travel in different directions
I could easily cut & reverse the supply wires?

Re: Passenger side windows travel in different directions
That should do it.
Still a mystery why it reversed, but if it ever undoes the reversal, you could just undo yours

You could even install a DPDT switch, or would that be over the top

Re: Passenger side windows travel in different directions
The job is finally jobbed.
I cut and reversed the supply to the connector, and the car from Delmonte, he say Yes. So it has to be the motor which has reversed polarity for god-only-knows what reason as the supply never reversed. Tested the roof and everything's absolutely fine. If it ever decides to re-reverse, I'll set fire to it. 
Thanks a million for your help Ian. It always helps to get someone else's perspective with issues like this, for sanity if nothing else.

Re: Passenger side windows travel in different directions
I want to as a question here as I have a problem with windows also. I serviced the rear windows mechanisms and now when I press the UP button the windows go DOWN but the REAR window goes down first then the front after that. That is only on the drivers side windows. I changed the 2 purple pins, switched them around. Now when I press DOWN the windows go DOWN but again the rear goes down first then front drivers side window. Can anyone post a picture of the button switch wire connector for the windows so I can see where each wire goes to.
Thanks
Thanks

Re: Passenger side windows travel in different directions
I will answer my own question as I received no answer but after a lot of thinking I came up with the solution of the problem. I had the same problem as the user who post above me. It turns out that 2 out of the 4 electric window motors changed their polarity on their own after I removed all 4 electric motors. I just changed the location of the 2 pins in both connectors which plug into the electric motors. Now the front window goes down first and then the rear, before it was the rear that went down first then the front. That is the solution.

Try performing a full window motor reset procedure by holding the down button for 10 seconds after reaching bottom position, then up for 10 seconds at top
