Answer
Hi Nick,

did you perform the calibration on the window after your repair?

Here are the calibration instructions:

<<
Calibration
When the CCU is changed from transit mode to a valid market mode, and after the vehicle battery
has been disconnected, the tail door window must be calibrated to provide the CCU with a
window position datum. When the CCU mode is changed to a valid market, or the battery
reconnected, the CCU automatically begins the calibration process by energising the down
contacts in the tail window lift relay until the window motor stalls, to ensure the window is fully down.

The calibration procedure is completed as follows:

1 Ensure the tail door is closed, the vehicle unlocked and the alarm disarmed.

2 On 3 door models, ensure the roof is on (hard back) or lowered and secured (soft back).

3 With the ignition on, use the console switch, or the vehicle key in the tail door lock, to raise the window until the motor stalls with the window fully closed.

4 Switch off the ignition.

If the calibration procedure is unsuccessful, the CCU will sound a warning for approximately 0.8 second and fully lower the window.

Tail door window calibration can fail for the following reasons:

Window stops before minimum travel is achieved.
Window does not achieve a stall.
Window request removed before stall is achieved.
Tail door opened while driving window up.

Let me know if this helps.

Best of luck,
