Power Windows A Mind Of Their Own !

[Skidspan]

Hi all,

Well Im a recent owner of a 2007 year Lexus 220d. I have to say I'm loving it! But got a shock this week when I arrived back to my vehicle and to my horror ALL power windows were open fully ! This has to be a malfunction with the electric window circuit and or switch. Has anyone experianced this before ? Is it a known concern ?

I'm nervous now to leave it anywhere in public.

Any advice would be most welcomed.

regards

Skidpad, this has happened to me once and like you I was rather concerned. All I can think is that the unlock button on the electronic fob must have got pressed in my pocket for the 4-5 secs it takes to unlock and open the windows, if it is kept pressed.

Hope that helps.

Its happened to my wife once as well , being a woman she presses buttons hard and long ( all women seem to ? ) when I went out to get the car all the windows were open and I had the same feeling as you . :shutit:

This happened to me once. I was crawling around in the loft doing some jobs and when I went outside I noticed all the windows on my IS were wide open!

Needless to say I was not impressed.

Fortunately the car was going in for a service that week, so I got the dealer to disable this 'feature'.

Maybe, but it's not such a great feature when you leave your IS in the long stay car park at Heathrow for a month's holiday down under in the deepest, darkest, coldest, wettest part of winter and the junk in your wife's handbag presses against the key fob button for 5 seconds as she rumages around for her passport at the nearby bus stop....
