Skoda Octavia electric windows opening when car is locked

Car: Skoda Octavia
Variant: 1tsi
Model Year: 2020
Categories: Electrics, ECU, Warnings & Lights
Happened to mine overnight, perhaps I sat on the key?
I've disabled the auto all window open function.
Fingers crossed it won't happen again.
BTW the remote on these is quite long range .
Also why would anyone want to leave a car locked with all Windows fully open?

Can be caused by a low battery condition

Thanks W.
12.20V. at Bat. terminals so about 1/2 charged.
Will check for excess current drain ASAP.

12.2 is approx 60% . I would try charging your battery first .

Thanks will seriously consider, would be concerned if 60% is low enough to cause this prob. as surely isn't this within normal battery range?
If this is the cause might need to get Skoda involved under warranty .

If you dont use the car much and for short journeys , especially at this time of year when lights , heater , demister etc . are on , it can pull the battery down over a period . I had a neighbour with this fault which happened a few times overnight ( different make ) and he was not convinced it was the battery as the battery had the indicator window showing green . Replaced battery ( older than yours ), problem solved . I also know of some cars where the key fob in the house , near to the car was sending signals not allowing all circuits to shut down . A lot of new fobs have now corrected this . If it persists , contact dealership and ask if known fault and any possible software updates related .
