Default Auto windows??

Hey all

Notices on my drivers side window switch it has auto on it, assumed that means press it once and it goes all the way down.

However It's not a 2 stage switch so there's no way to make it go down with one touch, am I missing something?

This thread needs to be moved, however I have also noticed my switch has "auto" on it and I can't seem to recall it ever going down on its own.

Mine is the same seems to work and go all the way down on one touch, when it pleases it and not when you want it too.

If you push the button right down and release it, the window will go right down.

It will not come back up automatically, you just have to hold the switch up.
