Any clues on this one as it is an intermittent fault that's happened over the past 2yrs, not happened over the last 12 months but now twice in 2 days!
The driver's window has had the (common?) problem of dropping back 3" when it's put up- something to do with the safety feature for trapped fingers I believe? I've lived with it because if I put the window up in short stages or 1" before total close and then again it closes OK. The intermittent fault is the window will open and either go 'dead' or I can put it up a few inches and if I stop may go dead again.
There is then it appears no pwoer to the window so I can't close it without disconnecting the battery for a few seconds then all is back to normal (along with having to reset the time.date which defaults to 00:00 01.01.2000). The strange thing is everything else works inclduing the passenger elec window/mirrors etc. It only affect the drivers window.
I have tried all combinations of solutions - ignition on/off, holding (long press) on window button, centre lock/unlock and wait for a few hours but all to no avail to get it to work! The only way is to disconnect then reconnect the battery.
Any ideas?
