93 500 SEL
Power Windows

Just purchased a 1993 500 SEL w/100k mi.
The drivers side window works properly but the others will only go down . To get them back up I have to depress the button many times.
What is the appropriate TEMP mine goes way past the 80(to the 100 line) and then slowly goes back to 80+
Radiator or thermo.

windows

There is a proceedure to re-sync the windows. I think your raise them by using the first detent on the switch and then holding the switch in the second detent for 5 seconds or so. It is in the owners manual.
