We are going to have to start with testing the window switch and see if this is the issue.

We don't have a manual on this vehicle because it is not offered here in the USA but we do have a number of guides that will help with this.

Here is a guide on how to remove the door panel and then a video on how to test the switch:

Also, here is a guide on how to use a test light in case you need a little more info on this:

Once we run through testing the switch the only other likely cause would be the motor so let's start here and see what results we have.

Thanks
