cabrio rear windows won´t raise


Recommended Posts

My MY99 C2 convertible rear windows won´t raise again (they went down with top up, I can hear a "click" when trying to raise the windows).

Is there a microswitch somewhere which prevents the contact with windoew motor? Or what can it be? Looks like the top thinks it´s still down.... I tried opening/closing the top, but the problem is still there.

Since it is a central problem, that is, both windows are not working, I would rule out any malfunctions at the actual window motor. With the car running and with the top down, try putting your finger into the main center slot above the rear view mirror and push down on the latch inside, while depressing he rear window switch at the same time. It may not work the first time, so you may need to repeat the process again. It could be something in the center latch not engaging properly, not allowing the rear windows to work. Normally, you can roll up the rear windows with the top down by using this process.

Yeps, the problem was the "fork" (which closes the front part of the top) does not touch enough the microswitch. I pressed the fork with my finger, and VOILÁ, the windows rolled up.

Thanks!
