Window anti-trap reset?


Recommended Posts

I was wondering if there is a such thing for Porsche. I know you are able to do this with some BMW's. I have a cabriolet and the driver's side rear window would close and go down 1/3 of the way as if someone stuck their hand in between the windows. If this issue has already been brought up before, I apologize. I have searched and searched with no answer. Thanks in advance.

There is probably too much pressure between the window and the soft top rubber seal, take a look if there is nothing stuck between the window and the seal and apply some silicone spray on the seal for better movement.

This is from an MY03 Carrera Owner's Manual (found on this site for downloading):

"Anti-crushing protection

"If a side window is blocked during closing, it will

stop and open again by about an inch.

"A Warning!

"Risk of severe personal injuries.

If the rocker switch is pressed again within

10 seconds of the window being blocked,

the window will close with its full closing

force. Anti-crushing protection is disabled.

"Once the anti-crushing protection acts to stop

the window and opens it slightly, do not press

the rocker switch again within 10 seconds

without checking to make sure that nothing is

blocking the path of the window.

The window will close with full closing force.

"One-touch operation is disabled for 10 seconds

after blockage of a side window."

The rear window does the same thing with the top down and front window down, so there would be nothing stopping it. It's odd because it just started doing this. I have the SmartTop and RemoteTop that enables me to close all windows and the top with the touch of a button but now that one window goes back down a bit.
