Long time lurker first time topic starter, hopefully someone can help

The passenger side window in my v8vr was catching a little on the rubber meaning it needed a bit of a push to open. From reading on here I followed the steps for resetting the window(both doors shut put window down and hold it down for 5 secs until it clicks then send it back up and hold it for 5 secs) - this didn't help.

I then read pulling fuse 82 and 83 would reset the modules. I pulled both of these and reinserted. Now the passenger window doesn't drop at all on trying to get in or exit, it will go up and diwn using the switch.I've tried resetting the window but no luck, fuse is in right as power fold mirrors are working.

I then tried to pull roof back and it said stop to remove roof, I didn't have a problem with the roof until I started messing. I'm hopping the roof thing will clear after a run out but need to get to bed now.

Any ideas whats gone wrong?

Sorry if this is a repost, did it last night but it's gone

Could be it as simple as a faulty switch in the door catch telling the car that the door is open/closed when it isn't?

Ensure your external door handle is completely flat shut, otherwise the window module will not close properly either smile

Just incase anyone ever searches and wants to outcome.

Window modules got reset, window is fine now. Cost was £18 although it was in for a service so I imagine a minimum charge would normally apply.
