Closing the car windows without starting the engine is a little-known but very useful trick, especially in modern vehicles that have advanced control systems. Many people have found themselves in situations where they forget to roll up their windows and don’t want to start the car again just to close them.

Fortunately, some manufacturers have incorporated a hidden function that allows you to close the windows without using the key or starting the engine. This trick, shared by a police officer, can be very useful in various circumstances.

How to Close Car Windows Without Using the Key

This method works on some vehicle models with advanced electronics and allows you to activate the window lock without starting the engine. Follow these steps to try this:

  1. Locate the window controls: On the driver’s door, identify the buttons that control the front windows.
  2. Press the buttons in the up position: Simultaneously press and hold the buttons on both windows in the “up” position, as if you were closing them as usual.
  3. Hold the pressure for a few seconds: The car’s system should detect the action and activate an alternate function.
  4. Continue pressing: Without releasing the buttons, wait for the windows to start closing. On some models, the system responds after a few seconds.

How does this trick work?

This procedure activates a special algorithm built into some modern cars. Its function is to allow the windows to close even when the ignition is off, which is useful in situations where the car’s electrical system is still operational but without the need for the key in the ignition.

It is a safety solution designed by certain manufacturers for cases where standard controls may fail or the vehicle has recently been turned off. Keep in mind that not all models have this feature enabled.

Additional Tips and Advice

  • Check if your car supports this method: Not all vehicles have this feature. You can test drive it in your car or check your owner’s manual.
  • Use this trick in emergencies: If you forgot to lock the windows before getting out of the car and don’t have the key handy, this can be a quick fix.
  • Do not force the system: If after several attempts the windows do not respond, it is possible that your vehicle does not have this option. Avoid applying unnecessary force to the buttons.
  • Consult a specialist: If your car has problems with the window closing system, it is best to go to a mechanic or an authorized dealer.
  • Alternative with remote control: Some models allow you to close the windows by holding down the lock button on the remote control for a few seconds.

This trick can be extremely useful for closing the windows of a car without starting the engine or using the key. Not all vehicles have this functionality, but in those that do, it represents a practical and convenient option. Trying this method in your car can help you avoid inconveniences and improve your experience of using the vehicle. Put it to the test and find out if your car has this hidden feature!
