Exclamation rear window going down at start up

HI Guys

My problem started two weeks ago. I cannot open doors with my remount control, I have to use a key to open door, and door locks don’t work too. If I start an engine, rear window goes down, if I push rear window switch on instrument panel to close it up and hold it, window stays closed. If I let switch go window going down itself again. But with working engine side windows and central lock work. Any input greatly appreciated.
Hopefully my writing is understandable, English my second language.


regards

The simplest issue I can think of is something with the fuse box.

Have you made any modifications to it lately? any fuses replaced? Is there anything connecting one fuse spot to another? Maybe an incorrect fuse?

I had a rear window issue last month - not exactly the same as you describe.

Short story, the window rolled itself down overnight and would not go back up. I traced the problem to the electrical switch on the rear hatch lock. When tested with a meter, the switch contacts are internally "stuck" in the roll down position.
I removed the switch, and the window works fine (except won't go up/down with the hatch key)

Exclamation

Update
when Engine is not working
I can open driver or passenger or rear door only with a key.
When I start up a motor
rear window rolls down, if I try to roll it up, it rolls down as soon I release a switch, but when shift into drive I can close or open rear window with no problem, all windows and central lock work. Any ideas??
regards
