Unable to close windows with a remote
« on: 05 January 2020, 12:34:31 »

Hi again,

A few weeks ago I noticed that I can't close the sunroof with the remote. It was always working and only recently noticed it wasn't working.

We did have a lot of rain in the last couple of months. Could this be related?

does the sunroof auto open/close on the switch? I know that if the windows have not been reset ie they won't auto open/close, then they won't close on the fob

Yes it does. The problem is with all the windows and the sunroof. After disconnecting the battery I did press and hold on the buttons to get the auto open/close feature back.

Try doing an auto reset on just the sunroof...push the room knob and let the sunroof do its thing ..it will open/close and then tilt .

That might reset the sunroof which might be overriding the window self closure.

As I thought ... do as amba suggests and reset the roof

I always do that after the battery was disconnected. Never had a problem with closing windows from a remote after that.

sunroof reset.

In close position, press and hold until sunroof fully closed.
Move to full tilt position, press and hold until sunroof fully tilted
Back to close, press and hold
Fully open, press and hold
Back to close, press and hold.

Yodel, my sunroof never did this. I mean I can only press the button when in close position. The sunroof will tilt only slightly and then close.

Other combinations in your post don't do anything, unfortunately.

However, I plugged in my laptop today and found a two-digit trouble code "18 - windows and sunroof automatic closure low voltage". The error comes up when I try to close the windows from a remote.

I've tried on a charged battery and tried whilst charging, but I don't think it's a battery issue.

Any ideas?

Maybe a silly question, but do all FL Omega’s have the option to close windows with the remote? :-X

Yes. Even police spec cars could close the windows from the remote  ;)
