Here's a 700+ page manual for all XJ-S. I skimmed the window part a bit, is there a button in your car for the convertible. I believe the rear windows roll down when you press the roof button, that's what I gathered from skimming.

Also, this would probably make a good FAQ, jim or Big.

 

The rear windows roll down with the top. If you latch the top and depress the button, the windows will go down with the top up.

 

Pardon me for not being up to my Marks, but is an XJS an XJ40??? I was under the impression that the XJ6 and 40 were four doors, albeit there were a few coupes in the earlier XJ series.... I stand to be corrected.

 

You are correct. Since we can't seem to stay on topic anyway, I figured it wouldn't matter if we got off forum either.

 

PLus half the people don't even no what an Xj40 is, I didn't until 2 weeks after I had my car... I figure if I have the answer I will help, if i didn't know what to say, just critisize for using wrong forum

 

lol!

 

No problem man, glad to help. So you figured evrything out youneeded right?

 

Doesn't sound like it. JW, look at my previous post. The side windows, the rear quarter glass windows, move with the top. Any time the top comes down, these go down with it. There is no separate button for them. If you want to lower those windows and not the top, no problem. Just leave the top latched and press the top button. The top won't move, but the windows will. This does not hurt the top motor, it's designed to do this. If you windows don't move, you probably have bad motors. Very common and very expensive.
