I have just come across this and wondered if anyone has taken the door lock and has any pictures. Did anyone find where you could buy the doner micro switches in the uk?

Hi there, to narrow it down wouldn't one that was heated have a film running through the glass, top to bottom? Otherwise your main dealer would know if you gave them your chassis number. Kind regards Mal -
Hi Logray, thank you for looking at the post. There are no other symptoms, no interior lights on and no other strange behaviour. I'm trying to think logically about this but I maybe way off. The fact the windows open all the way and the roof does says to me it maybe what ever links those together, so what about the comfort switch? Does that have a microswitch in the door somewhere? As you know the key fob opens the windows and roof by holding down one of the buttons, could it be something to do with a microswitch in this area? 1. Above, I understand but the roof had been closed for a couple of days before it opened. 2. Above. would that also open the roof? 3. Above, no other symptoms.

Hi all It has happened 3 times now but only when the car is unlocked. All four windows went down, thinking i'd left them open I closed them again. Within 5mins they all opened again, at first I thought I had sat on the key, but they were ndoors in a drawer. I locked the car and all was well again. A few days ago the roof ( it's a cab ) opened of it's own accord whilst the car was unlocked again. The windows had also gone down. I have read the article on the possible cause, microswitches but can't see anything that points to the roof going down, it mentions the windows opening 10cm but not the roof and the windows go all the way down. I aslo heard the alarm beep twice the other day when locking the car, very unusual, it never normally does that. I also read an article relating to a brass ariel conector on the alarm module, checked that and it appears tight. Can anyone help please. I'm not great with technical or even mechanical issues but would like to try and fix this myself. If it is likely to be a microswitch, which one baring in mind the roof opening? Any help would be really appreciated. Regards. Mal
