Got home from work this evening to find the both windows fully down, both doors open and the boot also open.

This has happened twice while the car has been locked and alarm set. Luckily both times the car has been in the garage.

Is it time to send the door / window box of for investigation & repair?

Anybody else had this happen?

Thanks. smile

Thanks for the reply.

Battery is less than 6 months old, but isn't always on a conditioner(just ordered one from Amazon)

Disconnected control box earlier for about an hour and reconnected.

It doesn't close the windows fully on locking either. But that's been the case ever since I've owned the car.

Will leave overnight and check tomorrow!

From memory it's dated 97.

Will double check when I get home tonight.

When mine has done this for various reasons I have just sat inside the car shut the doors wound the windows right up locked the car then unlocked it got out and it seems to help reset the position where it closes to.
It might work. worth a try.
Thanks Mark, that worked a treat. Only had the car 11 years and that's the first time the windows have gone from fully open to fully closed on locking!

Battery now on a conditioner, will see what that does!
