Another new local owner. One of these days there will be another work on cars day.

As for your problem, it might be the control unit under the seat. I can check it out with a PST2 if you want to stop by the office.

Take Jeff up on his offer... you are a lucky man to be in such close proximity to one of the Boxster world's most knowledgeable persons!

My mechanic told me that if the window doesn't drop a bit when the handle is lifted, it could be a sensor (as Jeff suggested above) or possibly the window regulator, which seem to go out frequently. Mine went out last year on the passenger side.

I'd check the switch in the door jamb, too. Could be that it is not making good contact when the door is open, causing the controller to think the door is open, no, wait, it's closed, no, it's open... wait... it's closed again....
