I have just experienced upon exiting the multi story car park and pressed the drivers switch window down to go and pop in the paid ticket into the machine when the drivers window opened instead.  Confused, I tried it again and the same thing happened.  I then tried the passenger switch which operated the drivers window!   How did it get reversed? I also noticed when pressing the lock button down to lock the central locking system, it wasn't responding - nether to lock or unlock.  Has anyone got any thoughts or ideas as to why this just happened? 

Any chance that rainwater may have found it's way into the control panel in the door recently, say by a window being left open?

Other than that I can only think it may be an earth wire or something busted in the door bellows area, between door and A-pillar connectors.

 

 

The weather has been dry and very warm in the last week and no water has been exposed to the car during this time.  Having gotten home, I locked the car via remote and everything seems to have gone back to normal again.  

Well that's good news. 

 

The window motor modules on later mk1s are only data-connected to one another, and not to anything central.

So if they do have a glitch there's no 'supervisor' to step in and say "hey WTF are you guys doing?"

Thanks for your thoughts
