interior button

Post by Cavalier342 »

Hey all :wave Been meaning to ask this for ages, keep forgetting.
On the electric window control panel bit, what's the circle shaped button do :scratch lol. Pressed it several times before but nothing happened. The only thing it does is stops the drivers window from going up when pressed. :? lol. Is there another purpose for it?
Cheers. :wave

Am I a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper? Well that depends on how much I've had to drink...

Yeah, the electic window system consists of a safety feature where it detects something jammed in the window and as such overides the mechanism.

However, if the windows get stuck due to ice, or age or even slipping on the run they won't open/close properly as the module thinks there is something trapped. The button bypasses the monitor and tells the motor to keep going.
