HELP ADVICE!! Electric window glitch
« on: 15 August 2013, 18:09 »
So I arrive home after having both windows open and after shutting engine off and pressing both windows to close the passenger window decides to open about 2 inches by itself. Whenever I try to close it, it re opens to the same spot every time.

Anyone had this/know how to fix it? Can I reset the computer somehow?

I've even set the MFD to windows up on key fob and even locking the car and holding till the windows go up it still pops open.

It's either £30 for breakdown cover or risk getting wet tartan

Any advice much appreciated

FIXED IT HA HA

Well not completely if I push button to auto close then it does above!?!

But if I push button and hold button it stays closed.

Any ideas why this is happening?

It could be sensing an obstruction as the guides rubbers are stiff and need some silicon loob.

It could also have forgot its auto function.
Mine did that. Put the window fully up then fully down at least 3 times by holding the switch it re_learns the auto function.

Good Skills Snoopy, thats sorted it, had to put window up fully by holding the button and then pressed it down on auto then back up and closed without any issues.

Saved me a few $$$$ thanks
