Window settings

[bmurphy]

Hello All - wonder if you could help me,

I've just got my car back from the bodyshop after somebody dropped their pushbike on the drivers side rear panel. The work involved taking the drivers door handle off so that the spray could be blended in. Having picked up the car it appears that the automatic drop on the window (open and close) is not working correctly on this door - when it shuts there is a 2mm gap between the window and the roof seal. I have spoke to the body shop and they tell me that this happens quite a bit also with Jags and that there is a serquence to reset the windows?! They are trying to get this confirmation from Porsche,

Has anybody heard of this before?

There is a procedure for 'standardising' the windows (see below), but it doesn't sound like that's the problem to me. If the window doesn't drop at all (5mm-ish) when you lift the handle, then it is probably a problem with one of the microswitches in the door handle switch assembly.

Good luck.

Standardising the power windows​

The system must be re−standardised after an interruption in the power supply to the power window electronics in the door. The position values for the short−stroke lowering function, position−controlled lowering function in the case of convertible top actuation and enabling for "automatic start−up of window closing" (one−touch function) are redefined. The standardisation process is initiated by continuous actuation of the operating button Raise window . Hold down the button Raise window until the window is closed and is switched off by the blockage detection function of the power windows.​

Blockage detection function​

Note: ​

​

If the window drive encounters resistance during the door window movement, the motor is switched off after a delay of 500 ms.​

thanks for your help,

Porsche confirmed the same so the car is going back to the body shop for them to put it back together again correctly,
