Help!!! Windows open every time I unlock my car

Hi all,

Is there any way of stopping the windows automatically opening when I use the key to open the door.
I think there may be a slight fault because I realise if you hold the key in the open position it should open the windows... but even if I quickly unlock the door and take the key out the windows still open??

Anyone got any ideas?

Close the windows manually, then key lock and hold the key.

If that doesn't stop them, then you have a fault!

Broken end of the lock barrel, not returning when the key is released would be my guess.

Many thanks

I wasn't certain it was just the default position of the windows when the car was unlocked, but but it's an easy and cheap thing to try before spending out any money!
