Title: Remote window roll up/down problem
Post by: ksamyui on November 17, 2022, 09:12:36 pm

Using the remote to roll the windows up, front windows (5dr) get within about 3mm of fully closed and then start winding down again.

This is only happening from the remote and not when using the buttons in the car.; any ideas? I've tried holding the buttons up for 15 seconds to reset the limiters, didn't work.

Sorry if this has been covered a 100 times; I did have a quick search and couldn't;t find this exact prob.

Did you try holding window switches up and down?

No. 15 seconds up, 15 seconds down?

happened to mine recently after a battery change..    hold the button up till window closes BUT do not let go of the button, hold it in up position for about 4secs after the window closes, then you have to do the same for the down position...  all windows have to be done separately
