Hi. The switches are in the center console on the pluriel and they didn't plug them back in or broke the plugs when they removed it?

Thanks for the reply the garage are now saying that there is a circuit board on drivers window motor that has gone and this is what has stopped both front windows working? The windows where fine when it was took in does this sound right? Or do you think I may be getting fobbed off?

My money would be on the 2 switches that are part of the centre console around the gear selector for very obvious reasons.
centre console electric window switches on a Citroen C3

But it does seem a very strange coincidence, but how can you prove it either way, other than go with letting the garage fix it? :?
