Window drops when I open the door, but then goes back up

[steved0x]

Very odd, my understanding is when the inner or outer door handle is lifted, and the door is closed, the window should drop a little, that is controlled by the 2 microswitches - one for the inner handle and one for the outer handle. The usual problem is the window not dropping, and can be caused by a failure of either of these switches, or the regulator.

Once the door is opened, the window raising back up is controlled by the microswitch in the lock assembly - if the computer thinks the door is closed even when it is open, the window goes right back up as soon as you release either the inner or outer handle.

Odd for you that it only happens when you open the door from the outside.

I am watching this thread to see how it resolves, because maybe I have been thinking about it wrong all these times...

Update: Disconnected the battery and left it to sit for a while. Reconnected and tested the windows. No one touch up-down. Then tested the door handles inside and out. Inside still works as it should, but from outside the problem persists.
