Auto-Up Window Problem
Recently the auto-up feature on the front windows of my 2000 RX300 has been malfunctioning. Lift all the way up on the switch, let go, and the window goes all the way up and then go right back down about half way. After a few attempts they tend to go up (and they work fine if you manually hold the switch while they roll up), and it doesn't do it all the time, but I was wondering if this is a common problem.
Thanks

It's not a common problem, but it has happened to me, twice. The second time, I had to take the door apart and get at the motor and I took it to a guy who knew how to fix the 'anti-pinch' device, an automobile electrician friend of my uncle. Sometimes the window can be dirty or the grease is dry and the window needs lubrication. Most of the time, peope will just replace the motor, but I am not sure offhand how much one of those costs.

auto up window
thanks for the information. I am wondering if it's been so long that I've rolled the windows up and down (temperature is still only in the sixties here in Chicago) there's resistance in the system.
