Electric windows not going up when car turned off... normal?
My w203 wont allow the electric windows to go up after I turn off the ignition. I find other cars you have about 30 secs before this shuts off. I always thought this was just part of the w203 (the sunroof you do get about 10 secs to close).
BUT; I spoke to a friend today who had an 03/04 w203 back in the day. He said he clearly remembers his windows did still function for a bit after the key was pulled out.

So...
- Is my w203 behaving normal?
- Is it faulty?
- or is there a setting I need to adjust?

It is normal, as soon as the key is turned to the off position all accessories are turned off in these cars. I do know what you're talking about, its called retained accessory power in GM vehicles and keeps all accessories on until a door is opened.

I thought so... thanks. Wonder why my friend says his still worked after the car was turned off... oh well. Maybe he is remembering wrong.
