Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

Thanks Jeff.....I just went out to open the door panel to address the window issue and sprayed the door latch with silicone lube and it fixed my window issue.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

2002 996 4S My door handle activates the window drop down OK but as soon as I release the handle to shut the door, the window goes up right away before I have time to close. Anyone think this part from our host will solve the issue ? "Window Drop Down Switch on Door Handle (Right) $44.00" Thanks David

POST 2Original post

Hi David, I have exactly the same problem on the driver's side. Did changing the switch fix the issue? John

POST 3Original post

The best thing to do would be to take door panel off so that you have access. There is a switch for the interior handle, another for the exterior handle and multiple inside the latch mechanism itself. The handle switches can be tested for continuity using a multimeter. If they work the you need a new latch mechanism. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

POST 4Original post

Two systems control this function. The first is the microswitch in the handle, which appears to be working. The other is a microswitch that is part of the latch. If the window immediately goes up when you release the handle, the latch thinks the door has closed, so that is where your problem is. The live data can be viewed with a Durametric or quality scan tool. Cheers
