Window motor repair service

Sat, 09 Oct 2021 12:41:52 +0000

Hello Polo People,

I would like to offer a repair service for some types of electric window motor module as fitted to 9N3 Polo, a few Transporters and some mk1/2 Skoda Fabia.

At this stage it applies only to two specific, exact part numbers fitted to the driver's side front door, as follows:

6Y1959801 Fitted to RHD 9N3 Polo, a few Transporters, and very early mk2 Skoda Fabias. Edit: and as recently pointed out to me by a kind customer, also fitted to some later 9N Polos. Please Private Message me your VIN number if you'd like me to check if your car has this type.

6Y2959802 Fitted to later RHD Mk1 Fabia, from around October 2004.

Left Hand Drive cars will use the other part number in each case.

Part numbers as above but with an A at the end are also included now, such as found in cars with rear electric windows too.

Note that both of these are driver's side units, the difference in part numbering is due to the orientation/positioning of the motor module on the panels they mount to in each model.

These parts suffer a type of intermittent, progressive failure where they 'sometimes work fine, sometimes don't work at all'. This is what I can fix for you.

I will test your faulty unit, confirm the problem, repair it to full working order and post it back to you for £59, total (UK addresses only).

You'd post it to me (tracked24 service recommended, purchase online at royalmail.com)

I would aim to turn it round within 2 days of receipt, and send it back tracked24.

This is the what the part looks like (mirror image of this and PN 6Y1959801 on RHD Polo):

Central locking via remote will still work in the absence of the window module, so you will be able to secure the car as normal while it is away.

Obviously you'll want to ensure that both front windows are fully shut, as in the absence of the driver's side module the passenger side one will not operate.

New units are nearly £200 from VW, and ebay 2nd hand ones with these part numbers tend to go for nearly £100.

I will charge you just £59 including return postage.

Cheers,

Pete
