Close windows from remote
« on: 17 April 2023, 14:35 »
Is there any way of closing the windows from the remote, maybe by clicking lock twice or something? I know you can do this by pressing and holding but hoping there's a better way.

Mine is coded for "Rain Closure" and I just spit on the screen to close the windows. :wink:

Thats about the only way - there is no one shot up/down (probably for "safety" reasons)

Could have done with that code the other day. I left my passenger window wide open. Only knew about it when a kind neighbour told me after about 3 hours of rain. Passenger seat soaked and rear footwell! Fortunately I've got a dehumidifier so left that running in the car for 48 hours and that removed all of the water.

Thought there may have been some kind of double button press. When I had a Z4 you could program the remote to put the hood and windows up when you triple clicked the remote.

This ^^ hold down lock button windows roll up indicators flash when done.
Same when opening hold down unlock and windows roll down release button to stop then in position.

The OP knew the continuous press opens / closes. Question was any other way of achieving same.

Yes, but I think you need the BCM modified (to a polo module maybe) to add the new switch

Have you got info on how to do this? I've looked a few times but never attempted it as a lot of people seem to say they have mixed results!

You need RLFS
