Yeh sorry about that - I nabbed both front seats, door cards, electric windows+looms+switches, cabin carpet, gear stick and handbrake bag - just been over for 'em today - should look good with a clean :)

He must've had a spare window motor then cos he's sending me the passenger motor and regulator, drivers door loom and the electric mirrors.

Looks like oyu were too slow Trigger :wink: the vultures had already been in and had their pickings :mrgreen:

Well I am now slightly confused, I have added the electric window part of a loom into my existing loom and today fitted the window motor and regulator to the passenger side. Plugged it all in (used a passenger windwo switch from a Focus) but it doesn't work :x !

I disconnected the plug on the motor and put my multimeter probe into it and earthed the other probe and when I press the switch (up or down depending on what hole the probe is in) and the meter shows about 12.5 volts so power is getting to the plug but it's not working. Thought it might be the motor so tried the spare Ford Ka window motor I had in the garage (same plug) but nothing from that either and I know that is a good motor as I took out of my step sons car!

Any ideas what's going on?
Will the passenger side only work if the drivers side is wired up?

I think you have to have everything wired up including all switches plugged into the loom for it to work, i found this out when fitting electric windows to a mk3 Escort only with that i had to make the complete section of loom which goes behind the dash myself

Ah crap I was hoping that wouldn't be the case. I still haven't got a drivers side motor and regulator! On the plus side got tha passenger electric mirror fitted and working although I need the heated switch to go in the dash.

I also fitted a traction control button, doesn't actually work but lights up and looks pretty lol

You will get there in the end, whereabouts are you from? there's a couple of people on ebay breaking Tourneos at the mo, i did the same with a traction control switch, think it was out of a Focus or Mondeo but they are all the same :D

I'm in aldershot, thought my luck was going to be lucky yesterday when I saw my local scrappy had a minibus but it had no extras on it at all! I got the traction control button thing from you lol. Got it from a focus ghia. Will have asearch on eBay I need something close by as I prefer to deal with cash as it stops her in doors noticing me spending money ;-) lol. Also keeping my eyes open for a headlight adjuster and all the relevant bits as I seem to have the wiring for them as well

they had kind of blue ish silvery colour one in there a few weeks ago, I hAd the mirror switch and the stereo surround from that one. They've got a White mini bus in there at the mo which has absolutely no extras on it.
Aldershot car spares is just a 5 min drive from me

Yeah that's the one, was pretty annoyed with them as they told me by email that the front passenger seat was a double and when i got there it was only a single, i travelled about 50-60 miles down there as well

Are the tourneo double front seats different to the normal transit double seat then?
They offered me the wheels and tyres off that one for £150 by the time I got to that one the door panels and front seats were gone. Wish I had taken the motors and regulators out of that one when i had the chance

The Tourneo seats have the posh velour cloth on them, i already have a Tourneo drivers seat but want the matching double passenger seat OR a set of custom seats which are also velour cloth, the seats were still in the Tourneo when i was down there but the door cards had gone
