I am having a problem with my windows rolling down automatically. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions.

This only happens when I am at my office. The first time it happened I thought someone was messing with me, but it has happened a few times since. I always leave my keys on my desk so I know i'm not pushing the unlock button accidentally. There are multiple automatic sliding doors around my office so i'm wondering if possibly the RFID is the same as one of those doors or something else? I have no idea. I have a brand new remote so its not the batteries. Any ideas? Ive gotten lucky so far and nothing has gotten stolen but how long can that last....
 
Heard Denver has lots of UFO spottings lately. :tongue (2):

But in all seriousness, I have seem ppl with similar keyfob signals. Not uncommon for someone with a matching command. Try parking futher away from your normal spots being at work.
 
If it keeps doing it with the battery in, next time try locking your car from the switchgear and not the remote. By process of elimination, we'll figure it out. :hahaha:
 
this is funny cuz it happens to me to. when i came out of work one time i see my windows down im like hat the hell then it didnt happen again. then i went to my friends house my brother calls me and say yo why did u leave the windows down i said i didnt i go down and there it is again open. so no every time i get out my car i lock the windows and when i get in it i unlock it cuz idk when it can happen again
 
Found this interesting and troubling........

Hackers Demonstrate Unlocking Car Doors via SMS




Forget your keys? No problem.

Car alarms aren't perfect systems, but security researchers Don Bailey and Mathew Solnik of iSec Partners have set out to prove how imperfect they really are.
The researchers have uncovered a way to hack a car's security system to remotely open or even start the engine. This happens by way of hacking a car's GSM mobile network that connects to a service like OnStar. A Subaru Outback was used as proof of their hack, but similar systems exist in cars from other manufacturers, such as GM, Mercedes-Benz, and BMW.
Through reverse engineering of the protocol, the researchers were able to take control of some of the car's security systems simply by sending it an SMS.
"When we looked at this car security and control system we determined within the first few hours that it was completely ownable, front to back," Bailey told Cnet. "This is not just a theoretical attack. This is a practical attack we've used on more than one system now."
While having a car stolen or tampered with via a text message is terrible, there could be even more far-reaching implications in other applications of the now-vulnerable technology.
"We are seeing more GSM [Global System for Mobile Communications]-enabled systems popping up in consumer culture and industrial control systems. They're not just in Zoombak [Global Positioning System] location devices and personal security control systems, but also in sensors deployed for waste treatment facilities, SCADA [Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition] and call-back systems, physical security systems, industrial control systems," Bailey said. "These GSM modules open up that world to attacks in a whole new way."
