Electric roof and windows

[mahoneye2]

Hi guys, quick question

when you activate the roof the side windows lower before retracting the roof, my question is

once the roof is fully retracted should the windows be able to be returned to the fully up position,

mine will not raise above the point they were lowered to to retract the roof is this correct?

if not do i need to do anything so they will return to fully up

Thanks

They do on my 718 Boxster.

What car have you got?

All 3 of the Boxster's I have owned windows return to the fully up position after lowering roof

You have a problem. The windows should go back up to fully 'up' as soon as the roof is fully opened and the motor shuts off.

Time for a check by your local dealer or Indy. Could be as simple as a micro-switch not working and sending a signal to the ECU to raise the windows.

Thanks I thought they should

Try doing the Window Reset procedure before anything else, it resets the window memory position sensing logic.

Check your manual for the exact procedure, but it is along the lines of...

One window at a time.
Ignition on, lower the window fully by holding the switch down, but not through the One Touch detent.
Now raise the window all the way by holding the switch up, again not through the detent.
Ignition off.
Repeat for other window.
