I know that when I disconnect the battery for some time, I have to "reset" the windows to work automatically up and down again.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

should both windows be one touch up and down? my drivers (rhd uk car) works fine and my passanger window one touches down but not up? any help to make passanger one touch to go up? thanks

POST 2Original post

On my 986 they are both one touch.

POST 3Original post

Hi. Mine are one touch up and down on both windows, Mine is a RHD 03 face lift 2.7 Guvs.

POST 4Original post

I have subscribed to this - I have the same problem. Drivers works both up and down, passenger only works going down..... Interesting! Sam

POST 5Original post

My car ('99 LHD) works on both windows, up and down. The guy I bought the car from is a dealership Porsche mechanic, and he gave me a tip on resetting the automatic windows: He said if they were not working or only going partway up, all you had to do was put the window up all the way, release the window up button, then press the window up button one more time. Conversely, put the window all the way down, release the window down button, then press the window down button one more time. I have no idea if this will solve your issue, but it only takes a few seconds to try!

POST 6Original post

The window regulator may have a bind in it causing the problem. I know that when I disconnect the battery for some time, I have to "reset" the windows to work automatically up and down again. If you just put it down, then up then down again it should fine the parameters and reset itself.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
