S500 passenger side electrics not working.

Hi all,
I have a RHD 2000 S500 and up until yesterday it was trouble free but after shutting the front passenger window, nothing now seems to work on that side.
I have no window control from either drivers controls or passenger side, wing mirror doesn't work, neither does the indicator on the mirror housing. The seat motor doesn't go and neither do the seat heating controls work.
I have checked all the fuses but as I don't have a fuse diagram there could be other fuses somewhere that I'm not aware of (Other than under the bonnet and the rear foot well. Nothing has got wet that I can see as the weather has been very dry lately.
Is there a simple solution to this or is it a trip to the stealers and another massive bill?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Rollerman.
