Hi folks,

I wonder if anyone bothered to know if it is possible to open or close windows on Focus with ignition turned off?

My second generation Focus (built in 2007, European version) had that feature. I just needed to hold unlock button on my key fob for three seconds to open all the windows at once and the opposite hold lock button for three seconds to close them. Worked anytime!!! Very nice feature!

Nothing is weird or unsafe about that. My Nissan Armada is the only vehicle with power windows that I've owned that would do this, and then it was only the front two windows.

That does not work on any stock 2012+ MK3 built in Michigan.

If the O.P. modified the as built data using http://www.focusfanatics.com/forum/showthread.php?t=402666
they can enable global open/close, but otherwise it's not possible at home to do so.
^Exactly this.

It's been done here already using the FoCCCus config tool. You just can't ask a dealer to do it for you.

Please read the thread before saying it can't be done.

It can't be done however if you do not have one touch up and down on all four windows as the car would lack the modules to control them.
