16' C7. Here is the issue....Turn ignition off - open drivers door - window drops 1/8", then without touching anything, in a second or 2, the window goes up (door is open, touching nothing). If I push the door release button, the window drops the 1/8", then goes back up all on it's own. The problem progressed quickly. In addition to the window not indexing, it also started not shutting the stereo off, drivers seat not going back and steering wheel not going up when the ignition was shut off.
I have performed the index per the manual, no help. I did change the battery yesterday thinking this would fix it, but it has not. Any ideas what it can be?
What actually controls the window indexing? There a module in the door or something? No idea what it could be.
Just seen this on another forum, same problem I am having except mine is drivers side -
"I have a 2014 C7 and recently started having a problem with the passenger window. When we open the door the window goes down and inch or so to allow clearance of frame. Sometimes once it is opened, the window returns to the top position and hits the frame when closed. I have tried indexing the windows and this has not helped. One other thing to note is that when the door is open and I press the door open button (the one accessed from the outside) the window goes up and down a few times and then stops. This does not always happen, but on occasion. I am looking for others who have had and solved this problem."

UPDATE: Finally found a great Indy who quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem. It was the door latch mechanism (on the body, not door), replaced it and good to go!!! There were zero in stock anywhere, so the Indy found one on eBay, thought I was going to have to trade it in on a C8

Hello Sixgun95,
Please can you provide the part number and photo.
I have the same problem but I leave in Tahiti French Polynesia we don't have any Corvette parts dealer or certified mechanic.
So the shipping or parts is very expensive and I don't want to order the wrong part..
Is that the part on the photo ?
