If you look at the other thread you will see that I had this fixed once and it is broken AGAIN!!! I hope it gets fixed the first time for you guys, but don't hold your breath. It only worked a few months before doing the same thing again. And yes, they did replace the motor, not the switch. At least that's what they told me

[B]problem is identical; windows won't go down when lowering the top and the auto lower function won't work either.

Oh yeah, absolutely.

Consider: The safest place for valuables in our car is the trunk, yet the easiest place to break into is the plastic console box where the trunk release resides. Once that's disconnected, you can continue to use your S2000 as a fairly safe repository for valuables while you're shopping or if you needed to leave something overnight.

My Miata was opened like a sardine can once and was ransacked, but the thief couldn't get into my trunk as easily because the original Miatas didn't have an inside trunk release. My briefcase and camera was safe and I learned a valuable lesson. Most break-ins are quick crimes of opportunity. The longer it takes a thief to get into your auto, the less likely he'll stick around to finish the job. Car alarms are no more a deterrent anymore than a barking dog. The console should be a plastic covered steel box; it's entirely too easy to pry open.

I started having problems with my driver side window just this week (7K). Same symptoms as everyone else. Guess I'm going to have to send it in to get fixed.

SomethingWicked,

I vaguely remember that my friend did that with his Type-R after being burglarized too.

Let me know how it goes?

Will do, Joe_s2k!
It'll be a couple of weeks from now (waiting to need an oil change).
