Default Front Windows Roll Down By Themselves

Hello all,

So for some reason while im driving my 1997 D1 both the front windows will roll down by themselves, its very sporadic sometimes it happens every mile and sometimes it will go a few trips and it only happens when the vehicle is on.
anyone have any idea????
Also I dont have a key fob and I dont even know if it came with one.
Thanks, Langley

That would be called a "Feature" it senses when you are in the mood for some fresh air....
(had to say that)
probably either a solder crack in the window ECU or a bad window switch.. I have always found problems with the ECU board, easy fix if you are used to soldering boards. Plenty of youtube videos on fixing these boards

Thanks for the info! It ended up being a cold solder joint, I re-soldered and it works great!
