Anyway, I replaced the drivers window switch with a brand new Porsche part and ever since then when I open/close the roof the passenger window doesn't drop, or close when the open/close cycle completes I have to use the window switch.

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.

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

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1Original post

Hey all, i've searched these forums, and other places but can't find an answer; or a problem similar to mine. I have a 2007 987S (i'm in the UK, so right hand drive) When I bought the car last year, the roof and both windows all functioned as expected. Then the window switch on the drivers side broke (the plastic switch went brittle and snapped), I eventually got around to replacing it when I drove it one day and both windows went nuts (I expect the switch completely degraded and sent both windows going up and down repeatedly). Anyway, I replaced the drivers window switch with a brand new Porsche part and ever since then when I open/close the roof the passenger window doesn't drop, or close when the open/close cycle completes I have to use the window switch. The drivers window does drop when opening the roof. Also, when opening the passenger door the window drops then, so the door microswitches and the roof latch microswitch appear to work (as the window drops on door open on passenger side, and the drivers window drops when opening the roof) Any ideas? I've looked at the wiring diagrams and looks like if the roof latch microswitch failed, then both windows should have the same behaviour as it doesn't have an output for each side. Any thoughts? I'm currently thinking either the relay (not sure if it controls each side independently) or maybe the rear control unit under the seat?
