Greetings

I have a 2007 3.0 D4D Hilux (Vigo??)

Yesterday the auto windows and central locking stopped working. I checked the fuses under the cubby hole and when i pressed the remote (to lock/unlock) i can hear a relay working

Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong

Have you checked the battery voltage of the vehicle to ascertain if it is providing sufficient power to allow the relay to function correctly? Also, how long ago was the remote battery replaced?

Hey thanks for answering

Remote battery changed over a year, however, it does activate the alarm, so it arms.

The actual vehicle battery, could be an issue. This hasn't happened but always an option.

Again, thanks

You mean to say the battery from 2007 is still in that car? Holy crap, Batman.
No, it is not yoh hahaha. I am not sure when I replaced it....costly experience, however, it may need one. What I meant is, when other batteries have reached EOL I never had this issue with windows and locking

It can't be the battery if the windows don't work even when the engine is running.
