Car window won't close/go back up (electric window)

Arsenal2019

Hi guys

Recently, my driver side window has been sticking for some reason at the bottom and won't come back up !
Whenever I open my window, it opens. When I go to lower the window more, it opens. But, whenever I decide to close the window, the window still lowers and will not physically come back up.

I manage to get the window to come back up after I continuously try to close the window for 20 or so minutes.

I have tried turning off my car and back on, resetting my battery and I can't find a solution.

My car is a Citroen c2 and has automatic windows.

Could this be a job at a car garage or is it an auto electrician I should see?

P.s- my BSI unit was damaged in some way several months ago, affecting my doors as they wouldn't open- meaning I had to get sesperate locks (i didn't want to pay £500+ for a new BSI unit which could happen brrwak again.

Thanks

Have you looked at the various Citroen forums?

Resetting the body control unit may help and doesn't cost anything...

Good advice. My Civic had issues with the window switches due to a flat battery a couple of times. There's a reset sequence to follow and once I'd done this they all worked fine again.

Hopefully there'll be something for your car as well.

Ok thank you guys. I'll have a look for it and see what I can find! In the mean time Do you think unplugging and plugging in the battery could help

May just be a dodgy switch, do you have a central switch that opens & closes all windows?

No I don't. The driver side switch to control the window is on the right side of gear stick and the passenger is to the left side

Can you close them from your key fob? Some cars will close the windows if you press and hold the lock button on the key fob.

Or if you insert the key and hold the key in the lock position. Works on all VW Group cars at least

We don't know because it can be different for different cars. Have you found anything in the manual or on the Citroen forum you were linked to yet?
