Sory !! It was not the button. The key was too far from the car . And I tested that button 10 minuts ago and the windows did not open . After 10 seconds pressing the button a "beep" sounds and that's all.

Open windows or not, I don't think it would have mattered. House is even worse. Oh well.

where in jersey are you? sorry about the loses.

Thank god my car didnt open up!
