What Is This Part?
This is the combined control switch fitted in the driver's door panel for operating the electric windows and exterior mirrors. It provides the driver's inputs to the window and mirror systems, while the motors and window lifting mechanisms carry out the movement. This version is specified for vehicles with electrically retractable mirrors, including the listed memory and auto-dimming equipment combinations. Those equipment descriptions identify compatible vehicle configurations; replacing the switch does not add those features to a car without them.
What Does This Part Do?
- Controls window movement: Provides the controls used to request electric window opening and closing.
- Controls mirror adjustment: Allows the driver to select and adjust the exterior mirrors electrically.
- Supports electrically retractable mirror operation: Provides the appropriate control arrangement for the listed folding-mirror equipment.
- Combines everyday door controls: Brings the window and mirror functions together in one driver's-side switch assembly.
Why Replace This Part?
Repeated use, worn contacts, dirt or moisture can leave a window or mirror switch intermittent or unresponsive. Physical damage may also leave a button loose, sticking or unable to return properly. Replacement is appropriate when inspection and electrical testing identify the switch as the cause of the fault.
Check the connector, door wiring and affected motor or mechanism before replacing the assembly. A window that sticks or a mirror that will not move can have a fault elsewhere, so changing the switch without diagnosis may leave the original problem unresolved.
When to Replace This Part?
- Repeated presses are needed: Window or mirror controls respond inconsistently or only under unusual pressure.
- One direction does not respond: A window or mirror moves in one direction but not another, and testing identifies a switch fault.
- Controls are damaged: Buttons are broken, loose, sticking or no longer operate normally.
- Mirror selection is unreliable: The selector does not consistently engage the intended mirror.
- Moisture or corrosion is present: Inspect the switch and connector, and address the source of any water ingress.
- The housing will not seat securely: Check the switch housing and surrounding door-panel mounting points for damage.
Where Is This Part Fitted?
Location: In the driver's-side interior door panel, at the combined electric window and exterior mirror control position. It connects to the door's electrical wiring.
Technical Details
- Position: Driver's side.
- Finish: Matt Black/hi-gloss chrome.
- Control functions: Electric window regulator and exterior mirror.
- Mirror equipment: Electrically retractable mirrors, with the specified memory and auto-dimming combinations.
FAQs
- Does an unresponsive window prove the switch is faulty?
No. Wiring, connectors, the window motor and the regulator can cause similar symptoms. Test the affected circuit before choosing replacement parts. - Why might a mirror move in only one direction?
A switch contact fault is one possibility, but wiring or a mirror motor fault can also prevent movement. Check the selected mirror and test the control output. - What should I compare before ordering?
Compare reference 99161315502DML, the connector, body style and mirror option codes with the existing installation.

What Is This Part?
This is the combined electrical switch assembly fitted into the driver's door panel. It provides the controls used to operate the electric windows and adjust the exterior mirrors, including the control arrangement for electrically retractable mirrors. The switch works with the vehicle's wiring and associated window and mirror systems; the motors and window lifting mechanisms remain separate components. Matching the equipment version matters because similar-looking door switches can have different functions.
What Does This Part Do?
- Window operation: Provides the driver's controls for raising and lowering the electric windows.
- Mirror adjustment: Allows the driver to select and adjust the exterior mirrors.
- Mirror retraction: Provides the control arrangement for the specified electrically retractable mirror equipment.
- Combined door controls: Brings window and mirror operation together in the driver's door-mounted assembly.
Why Replace This Part?
Repeated use can leave switch buttons loose, sticking or mechanically damaged. Worn internal contacts, contamination or moisture-related deterioration may also cause inconsistent responses. Replacement is appropriate when inspection and electrical testing identify the switch assembly as the cause of a window or mirror control fault.
Similar symptoms can originate in the door wiring, connectors, power supply, control electronics or the operated mechanism. Check these before replacing the switch, particularly if several functions fail together or the fault changes as the door moves.
When to Replace This Part?
- Intermittent response: Window or mirror controls require repeated presses or only respond at certain button positions.
- Restricted operation: A window or mirror responds in only one direction and testing confirms a switch fault.
- Physical damage: Buttons, the mirror selector or the switch housing are broken or no longer operate correctly.
- Sticking controls: A control does not move freely or return normally after use.
- Connection damage: Inspect corrosion, moisture traces or damaged terminals and establish whether the switch, connector or wiring needs repair.
Where Is This Part Fitted?
Location: In the driver's interior door panel, at the combined electric window and exterior mirror control position. Check the housing, connector and retaining points against the removed assembly before fitting.
Technical Details
- Control type: Combined electric window regulator and exterior mirror switch.
- Position: Driver's side.
- Finish: Matt Black/hi-gloss chrome.
- Equipment qualification: Electrically retractable mirrors, option codes I258, I259, I260 or I261.
FAQs
- Does an unresponsive window always mean the switch has failed? No. Check the wiring, connectors, power supply, motor and regulator before concluding that the switch is faulty.
- Does this add mirror memory or auto dimming? No upgrade is implied. The listed option codes identify existing vehicle equipment that must be matched when choosing the replacement.
- What should I compare before ordering? Compare reference 99161315702DML with the original assembly and confirm the body style, mirror options, connector and control layout.

Restore comfort and convenience with Porsche electric window switches from Design911. These essential interior components control your vehicle’s power window system, ensuring smooth and reliable window operation at the touch of a button.
What They Are & What They Do
An electric window switch is an electrical control unit mounted on the door
panel or center console that allows you to raise and lower your windows
electronically. When pressed, it sends a signal to the window motor, activating
the lift mechanism.
Modern Porsche models feature multi-function switches with integrated child
locks, lighting, or memory features for added convenience.
Why They Fail
Window switches can fail due to wear and tear, moisture exposure, dust,
electrical corrosion, or broken internal contacts. Constant use, especially on
the driver’s side, can lead to sticking buttons, intermittent operation, or
total switch failure. In some cases, the internal circuitry can short out,
causing the windows to become unresponsive.
Why They Should Be Replaced
A faulty window switch not only reduces convenience but can also compromise
safety and weather protection. Replacing the switch restores full power window
functionality, ensuring the ability to quickly open or close windows as
intended.
