Summary
Anti-trap Is Activated when Raising the Front Side Windows. When closing the front side windows using the convertible top switch or the central power window switch, one or both front side windows come to a stop at the top third travel area, and then reverse direction slightly. When the switch is actuated again, the windows will close normally. CAUSE The front side windows contact the rear side windows, causing the anti-trap feature of the front side windows to trigger.
