Very strange electrical gremlin
 

Something very strange just happened when I tried to leave my office for lunch today. Suddenly, all of the windows stopped working, along with the sunroof, clock and center instrument illumination, and the front footwell lamps. I can use the driver's switch panel to activate the child's lock and adjust the mirrors, so its not a problem with the switches. Tried opening the windows from their respective doors...nothing. Everything was working fine this morning. I have no idea what went wrong. Could it be a fuse or relay issue?

After some research, it sounds like it might be an issue related to the Front Electronics Module. There are multiples fuses that relate to the FEM, I'm going to try each of those next.

Good luck on finding that Gremlin.

I've determined that fuse no. 14 in the cabin box is the culprit. However, it shorts out again when the interior lighting switches to night mode automatically. Seems like there's some sort of wiring issue behind the center console. I'll have to take her apart and have a look tonight.

Please keep us posted and post some pictures if possible. This type of information in really handy for others on the forum.

So, after some searching, I discovered that the wire going to the clock, which illuminates it, was pinched somehow. I straightened it out and everything is back to normal. I have no idea how that happened. Unfortunately, I didn't take any photos, but its relatively simple to get behind the clock. Just takes some time and patience.

Glad you got it sorted so easily and cost free.
