Hi All - I have an 07 Mazda 5 Sport and came out of my house this morning to find 3 of the windows down

The only one that wasnt down is the only one that doesnt currently work with the drivers controls, so i assume it must be to do with them.

I have put the window lock on tonight disabling the drivers controls for the window - my worry is i will come down to the driver side being down tomorrow and its due to rain

Any ideas? - Battery seems a bit low can this cause problems?

 

Give this a try and see if it works.

1. Turn ignition switch on.
2. Starting with the drivers side front door, operate the drivers power
window down to open window slightly, then back up. When the window
reaches the closed position continue to hold for a minimum of 3 seconds.
Release drivers power window switch.
3. Proceed to passengers front door and repeat step 2.
NOTE: MAZDASPEED VEHICLES REQUIRE ALL WINDOWS TO BE INTIALIZED.
INITIALIZE PASSENGER REAR WINDOW AFTER PASSENGER FRONT, THEN DRIVERS
REAR WINDOW.
4. After all windows have been initialized, turn ignition switch off and
back on.

 

Thanks - I understand that will reprogramme them all anfd i will try it tomorrow but why would they decide to open in the first place when i'm not anywhere near the car? big security issue

 

now that I don't know, I was just relaying what I searched on here... maybe you left them down?

 

Deffo didnt leave them down as didnt have them open to start with

 

I think i've found the answer - some stupid idea of Mazda's if you hold the unlock button for more than 1.5 seconds the windows drop.


Gonna have to be damn careful - I was lucky the car was still there where i live

 

Not really a stupid idea..my old Nissan did that..was a way to get air in the car as you approached it on a hot day. They may have taken that feature away..my 2010 Sport doesn't do that... :-(

 

I certainly got air in the car - they were open all night

 

Hi,
Same thing happened with my car a couple of months ago. It was left in the drive and when I returned in the evening I found all the windows down. I had been clearing the boot so maybe I had pressed the keyfob accidently when it was in my pocket.
It puzzled me at the time so it is nice to have an explanation.

Mazda5 2008 (58) Sport 2.0D.

 

1.5 seconds is not a long time - and i had also been i the boot the night before
