Re: Power Window Relay
Kev,
I dismantled the main switch before (see it HERE) but I didn't pay attention to the CPU (if we have one that is)

Re: Power Window Relay
Jalal,
No photo somewhere of the component side of the circuit board I suppose ?

Unfortunately no I didn't dig that deep when I dismantled the switch, as the button position was my the main reason for my little experiment. I don't feel like dismantling it again cause it was bit fiddly and all plastic that can break very easily.
If I find a spare main switch at the wreckers, I will be able to explore it a bit further.

Re: Power Window Relay
Guys,
Bad news am afraid.
I decided to take the risk again and dismantled the main switch, only to find out that the circuit board is actually moulded with the plastic base and can not be removed/separated to reveal the components under it. The only was to do that is to crack the circuit board in half
Sadly this also suggests that the main switch is NOT a maintainable item and most probably is replaced as a whole if things go wrong and it also means we won't be able to add and/or replace any of the relays within the main switch.
We need to shift the idea of adding a time delay relay away from the main switch and probably closer to the power windows relay itself and the wiring there.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but at least it will save some of you the trouble of trying it again.

Re: Power Window Relay
OK so what will be the new objective then ?
Is the concensus to have the power windows operable in ACC or just for a fixed length of time after the key has been removed ?
