two minor problems

[bmw_tonci 0]

Hey guys,

Just brought an e36 328i coupé that has two minor electrical issues that I was hoping to repair myself if possible. (buying the car made a large dent in the coffers).

First is the passenger side window doesn't work. When opening the door, which should make the window drop a centimetre, this doesn't happen however i can hear a slight noise from the engine. When I had the car checked the guys from McMillan also said that the switch was unplugged also.

So first question is what are the possible causes? I haven't taken the door inner off yet to have a look, mostly because I wouldn't be sure what to look for. Secondly how easily is this fixed and what parts am I going to need.

The second fault is the fan and air-con only working on full speed (speed4), I'm told this is an easy fix as you just replace the switch, where can i purchase this and also how is it removed and replaced?

Alternatively is it better to just have the work done at a local auto-electrican? or will they charge the earth?

Cheers in advance
