Default c70 electric windows

A query about the switch in my c70 that lowers all 4 electric windows at once - how do I then raise all 4 at once? - I've tried the 'other side' of the switch, but that doesn't do it, and I've tried raising one of the back windows while pressing it, but that doesn't work either.

Does anyone know how to do this, or even if this functionality is built into the car? - I asked my local dealer, but he didn't know.......


Thanks

The other side of the switch does it on mine but you have to hold it in rather that it doing it by one touch. Mine is a 57 plate.

Default re-electric windows

OK - I've had a quick try and that doesn't work on mine.

More details - the right hand side of the button (the side with NO dimple on) makes all the windows go down. The left hand side though, does nothing.

In case it's relevant, my car is a 2001 c70 2 litre.

Thanks

as far as I am aware, only the really late ones, ie new shape would do this.
My coupe (you have the convertable?) only had drivers side one touch and then only when it went down. I too thought it was a fault but they "all do that sir".

Aha!

I went and had another try.. Pressing the other side, then 'wiggling' my finger forwards and backwards, and hey presto! - the windows all powered up.

So I guess I'm looking at dodgy contacts on the switch - has anyone taken one of these switches to bits?
