Default Convertible down button

The front windows stop going down now when lowering the top. The rears go down. Any help. Thanks

Sacho, say more.
1. We can't tell if you expected the front window to open like the rear or drop a small amount.

2. You don't say how you open the roof. Door key or button.

When the button is in the down position the windows don’t go down like they used to. After the top is down I have to lower the door windows by themselves

Sacho, that's how they are supposed to work. The convertible button only operates rear windows, and that's only when roof is up )closed).

Are you sure I could swear when the button is pressed to lower the roof the door windows would open rear windows open and then top drops. If iam am wrong then a senior moment is setting in.😂😂😂

Once the top is down, you can press the top 'Up' button momentarily and both door windows will lower(in anticipation of raising the top?).

My front windows never lowered when opening the convertible top using the console button.
The only time they lower automatically is when using the key in the driver's door lock to lower the top. To do that you insert the key into the door lock and turn to the unlock position and hold it there until the top is lowered.
