Electric windows. Wont close properly

(1/1)

Amalfi:
 ???06 plate Aero convertible. Only had it a couple of months but recently have had probelms closing both driver and offside windows. When they get to the top they go back down again about a third of the way. It seems as though they are detecting something trapped and so coming back down to prevent damage to window or whatever is in the way. i have cleaned all the widow seals and applied silicon spray but to no avail. Is this something that can be adjusted or is it a sign of something on its way out?

Guyver1:
Try doing a hard reset

Hold the button down until the window has fully retracted, keep holding down for 3 seconds, might be a bleep to confirm. Then do the same when closing, fully closed then 3 seconds. Do this on every window in turn.

Amalfi:
Thanks for quick reply, I will try that . Should have looked at other post first. Have just seen a similar post by Mr Linear from last August. Looks like all the answers I need are already right there. :)

For the record, pulling fuse 5 (left corner of fascia - see car manual for directions), and then doing a reset of the sensors (holding down the window buttons for 3 seconds) solved the issue on my partner's 2008 9-3.
