Default question about windows?

Recently purchased '00 S. Are both windows supposed to automatically go down when letting the top down?
The passenger side does but the drivers goes down 1/4 of the way then stops.

You have a defective window regulator. You can try resetting it (search) but it will probably come back.

Search for reset window i believe. If I recall correctly:

1. start the car (it must be running)
2. put the window all the way up
3. pull the window up switch again and wait a few seconds until you hear a click
4. put window all the way down
5. push down again for a few seconds until you hear a click

This is suppose to reset the top and bottom locations of the windows and correct this problem. I have yet to try it as my windows have been working with no issues.

Window regulator failure is a common problem
You can try the reset, but my money is on regulator failure

Thanx Assassin. That did the trick! The service department told me that the problem will prolly reoccur so they're still ordering new parts just the same. Its covered so whatdahell. Thnx guys
