Central Locking / Windows Playing Up

Hey,

 

my mk4 cab has developed another problem! *yawn*

 

since i brought the car, the passenger lock from the outside has never worked ( wont lock if i put the key into the lock) but it has never bothered me as im the driver and my car has central locking so i always opened it from the drivers door.

 

until a couple days ago, when i went to lock my car (from the drivers door) it only locked that door and the passenger one stayed open. then the light on the dashboard ( rear demister) came on .

 

 

after turning the key a few times, it finally locked! ( the dashboard light went off)

 

....

 

a day later now i cant lock my passenger door at all via the central locking, so i took both door cards off and check all the motors and things and they all work fine, so i just disconnected the central locking and just went with manual locks.

 

and that was fine for a few hours..

 

now my windows wont open on both sides.. and when i press the window switches the light on the dashboard lights up ( rear demister )

 

someone help!!

 

thanks
