Window problem

[RandallNeighbour]

Sometimes the windows lose their memory settings of where they should stop and start. You may need a regulator, but resetting the windows would be a good first thing to do and is free.

While inside the car and the door completely closed, run the window up and down a few times.

If this doesn't solve the problem, I'm afraid you have a worn regulator and it needs replacement. Our cars have this problem more than 911's of the same year because we have drop tops and we're constantly using the windows where a hard top driver might not roll the windows down nearly as much.

My '03 started doing the same thing on the passenger window about 2 weeks ago. Tried resetting the window (roll down, roll up while holding down the button for 5 seconds after it reaches the top), no improvement. It's still under warranty, took it to the dealer, replaced window regulator, problem fixed. I asked if the regulator can be adjusted to fix the problem, answer "no", must be replaced.

OK I sort of encountered this similar problem but I dont think its the regulator (or at least hope not).

What happened is that I was preparing the box for storage and disconnected the battery. Then I opened the doors foregetting tha that windos are supposed to roll down a bit upon entering. I reconnected the battery so that I can close the doors properly as now the window were too high to close properly. Now the drivers side window is too low and the passnger side is a tad high. Neither of the windows roll up or down when I pull on the door handles now. I was in a rush and had to go so I took my battery with me to get it on a trickle charger. What should I do when I get the time to reconnect the battery?

Try connecting the battery and raising and lowering the windows fully two or three times with the doors closed.

Sometimes the windows just need to be reset.
