Default window / roof

I have a 1999 Carrea RHD Convertible
Odd problem the electric windows all work fine, off the key, switches, and roof operation.
Also lower slightly when you pull door handle including passenger side and then reclose when handle released

When you lower the roof all the windows lower except the passenger 1.
When you raise the roof all window raise except the passenger 1 as it didn't open in the first place
NOW
lower passenger window by the switch
Lower the roof all the windows are down its a full convertible

Raise the roof
All windows including the passenger close

Windows have been reset
battery has been taken off
Will this be the Roof ECU playing up if so where is it located
thanks

Summary: Passenger window must be opened by switch when opening the top. Everything works as expected after that.
If that is correct, I would just live with it. Re-calibrating the top is likely a dealer job and probably more money than it's worth just to avoid a little inconvenience. If you still have the original top, it will likely need replacing in the near future and you can deal with it at that time.

Maybe someone will chime in if there is an easy/cheap way to re-calibrate it.

Is it as simple as calibrating the auto open/auto close feature of the window? Run it all the way up and hold the switch in the up position, run it all the way down and hold the switch in the down position. Something like that... I've had to re-train my windows and sunroof periodically (after a dead battery, iirc).
