Passenger window will open and close from Passenger door switch and when open it can be closed by Drivers door switch BUT the drivers door switch will not open either window... I have Haynes manual but the wiring diagram just shows an electronic control unit. Can anyone advise what is in the unit OR where I can get a complete wiring diagram ??. Also where are the Control units located ??
The system does'nt seem to recognise a VW Polo !!! so I've listed this query under GOLF.
I removed all 3 switches from driver and passenger door, which is really easy with a flat head screw driver. took them completely apart, very carefully, with a small screwdriver out of a christmas cracker. put them back together again and 2 switches started working, so I put 1 in the drivers side and 1 in the passengers side so now my drivers door window opens and I lean over to open the passenger door. cool, no money spent...yet ;o)
The drivers door window switch probably needs replacing.The control units are built into the window motors.Best of luck.

similar poblem, drivers window is fully functional, passenger window can be closed from drivers button, but not opened, and is fully functional from passenger button.
I have a polo gti 2001, the drivers side switch for the driver side window no longer works, it used the be a bit flaky with several attempts to get it to move the window but now nothing. It is a double switch, the other operates the passenger window and that is getting a bit dodgy. The passenger switch on the passenger side still seems to work fine although it doesn't get much use...
Problem solved on my Polo 2001 --- I was simply a broken wire in the wiring loom that goes from door (via hinge area) to car..
I repaired the wire and everything works OK...
All OK now... Problem was a broken wire where wiring passes through door hinge area.
