I've had this in the to-do list since I had the car two years ago, but only just started thinking about it more recently, and had gone along the same rout proposed above re duplicating the micro-switch in the door lock.

Initially I was going to 'short' the window switches for 7 seconds with the locking pulse, but the windows being still powered after key removal is halted once the doors are opened hence the decision to try the above.

Only thing stopping me was knowing wether indeed it was a simple switch or sent a specific code to the bcu..

So a timed hold on of approx 7 secs would raise the windows if the lazy micro switch in the door was was shorted... does that sound right RayKay? pink brown ----gnd

it also locks the car too, , although it would already be locked from the fob press.

Would this method also be ok for operating the mirrors to close (by simply parrallel shorting of the mirror parking switch as long as carried out within the power-to-mirror-switch -off delay-time ??
Or does 'locking' the car end this power-off-delay anyway?
