Consumer Description

FUSE NUMBER 14 BLEW, DISABLING THE ELECTRIC WINDOWS AND MOONROOF. I CONSIDER IT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH INOPERATIVE WINDOWS. FOUR VISITS TO THE AUDI DEALER WERE REQUIRED BEFORE THE PROBLEM WAS SUCCESSFULLY FIXED. THE PROBLEM TURNED OUT TO BE THE LUMBAR SUPPORT MECHANISM IN THE PASSENGER FRONT SEAT CHAFING AND EVENTUALLY SHORT-CIRCUITING THE WIRING TO THE REAR FOOTWELL LIGHTS, WHICH RUNS THROUGH THE FRONT SEATS. *JB
