I have recently been having problems with the drivers window dropping to the open position and back up to the closed position when the door is opened. when the car is locked it triggers the alarm. I switched the battery and thought that had solved the issue. I took the car out this morning for a run and the window was dancing up and down and the door open warning came on. Has anyone had this issue and maybe point me to the cause of the problem. I think it is related to the door open warning . It is becoming a pain as i have to leave it unlocked and remove the battery. Many thanks. Anthony.

 

Could be a failing microswitch in the door latch locking assembly....

 

Is that a big job?.

 

Easier if you have small hands (which I do not). There are videos on how to do this job. Use the search phrase "replacing XK8 door latch assembly microswitch" and study up on the subject....

 

Thanks.
