    Default So you are buying parts no matter if they are ...

    bad or not? Why don't you just buy a new car, it sure will get rid of the problem!!

    Just kidding, but seriously, it is an expensive way to fix it.

    About the relay, same layout, same connector, probably same part number.

    Again, not sure it will interfere with operation of interior lights, but being the same part number than Wiper relay, you could have switch them and test the GM with the wiper relay in place of power protection relay.

    I have NEARLY exactly the same faults!

    Windows dont work, got no sunroof so cant test that bit!, and wipers only high-speed. My interior lights work normally though, as does the central locking--Tried a general module from slightly older car, and the central locking then didnt work as well...........

    If you find your faults PLEASE let us know!

    Default Hold on, don't go to stealer yet. I will put some ...

    checking steps together for you tonight and see what we can find. If after that, you still have no clue, then use help from the stealer.

    Do you have electrician skills? Know how to use a volt-meter? Ohm meter? Do you recognize electrical/electronic components?

    In any case, I'll try to be as much specific as possible. Just give me tonight to work on it.
