Operate your windows without the ignition on or the key in

[Kermit]

I did this mod several months back on my cars. Every once in a great while the windows won't go down. A simple jiggle (hey, don;t make fun of that word!) of the connections and all is well.

Fob only rolls the top back to the 1st position and you can't roll the top back up unless key is in the ON position.

When the windows won't work with this mod, I've found it to be heat related. The sticky tape sometimes gives way if the interior gets too hot. It pulls on the connections which are loose. Re-stick the module and do the "jiggle" and all is back to normal. I may eventually find some way to tie down the module that keeps coming off in the heat.

Word of warning.

Recently I was riding as a passenger in the smart with my wife driving while we were out doing some shopping.
We had already done our wallyworld Christmas dinner shopping and had to make another stop for some more stuff.
As we got out of the car I closed my door while the other door was open and It sounded really different. I thought it was because I rarely close one door while the other is open so it didn't have the tight seal on the car.

When we came back to the car I noticed the Window was down. Car was still locked and the groceries were still in the back, but it was a bit freaky.
I must have bumped the window button on the way out. Since its Auto Down and rigged to work without the key, a simple bump while exiting opened the window without me noticing.

SO, If it sounds different when you close the door than your used to, check and make sure your window is still up.
