Passenger window fix

Folks, some advice please.

My passenger window has the annoying feature that it will only go 'auto-up' from about half way closed. This means that you have to close the window by holding the button.

Not so on the drivers side.

OPC say it's a safety feature so I can't strangle a small child.

Does anyone know, is it controlled electronically (module) or by a simple relay? My thinking is that if it is the latter I can swap the passenger relay for a driver relay to get similar function.

Anybody know?

Cheers

Rich
 
I'd say it's a module, as comfort close is a feature you programme on or off. I just release the switch after halfway up.
 
Mine does exactly the same, I thought it was a thought so mentioned it to OPC when it went in last week, they had a look and said it wasn't a fault !!!

Swamps :)
 
Quote from your manual that everyone has read, haven't they?

One-touch operation
Press the rocker switch upwards or
downwards to the second stage.
Window moves to its final position.
Press again to stop the window in the desired
position.
One-touch operation for closing the passenger's
window is available once the window is approximately
half-way closed.
 
I realise it is designed that way - what I want to know is whether it can be re-programmed or a relay change so that it acts like the drivers side?
 
Anything is possible, you just have to decide is the gain worth the effort :dont know:
 
There is no relay , its a control unit which is coded .

Technically you could code the passenger side as a LHD car ... ( this would reverse the options ... no idea if this would make it work or is indeed possible but i think it is) ..you would need to try it to see if its possible due to it being a software issue ... you would need to try it and see what happens basically .

LHD would make it the same as the RHD but on the passenger side .
