2016 DS3 Windown

Unread post by Xiar18 »

Hi all,

Hope anyone reading this is doing well.

I have an issue with my 2016 DS3 where my drivers side window (right side) has occasionally been faulty.

What happens is the window will be lowered, then when I go to bring the window back up it gets to around 1/3 - 1/2 which it then decides to go back down despite the button still being pulls up.

I’ve managed to temporarily fix this by turning the car off for 30 seconds and then turning it on again and pulling the button up which closes it.

However, I would hate to have it not work when out on a long journey with no fix.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Reset the anti-pinch.

Don't use the one touch operation, but use the first notch of the switch to manually raise the windows a bit at a time. When it stops, release and then again raise using the first notch and keep doing this until the window reaches the top. When it has reached the top, maintain a slight pull on the switch until you hear a feint click. The window is now reinitialised.

You will need to do this every time you disconnect the battery, so don't disconnect the battery unless you really have to and if doing so, follow the BSI Reset / Battery Disconnect / Reconnect Procedure
