    Remote start failure

    I have a 2018 Discovery5. The app on my apple phone windows will local/unlock the car but the start engine facility informs please check windows are closed or need resetting. ?
    Any observations on how to fix this?

    The remote start only works when the car is locked and all windows closed.

    Perhaps the car isn't correctly detecting that the windows are closed.

    A window reset is really easy. Open the windows a little then close them fully. Once closed, hold the switch in the close position (up as high as it will go) for about 10 seconds. You need to do this for each window.
