Window auto-up doesn't work.

RADRACR · 04-12-2014, 10:40 PM

Got car back from shop.
Auto-down works.
Auto-adjust when door opens/closes works.
Auto-up doesn't work.

Searched and tried a few home remedies to no avail.

ah its something along the lines of having the car key in the accessory position (before igniting the engine) and then holding up on the window button for 10 seconds. I remember programming mine not too long ago after swapping batteries

What i noticed is if you reset the window positions by putting it in the position before starting and push the window down button and hold it for 5-10sec then hold them up 5-10 sec it will reset windows. Sometimes after resetting it still wont work normally but after waiting a day it works again randomly. I dont know why but it does. Windows get this issue when battery is pulled

It will randomly start working again. Happened to me many times after services.

I saw this. English is my first language, but I don't understand. It reads like a poor translation of German. I've taken a stab at it but no good. Can anybody verify if this does work, and explain the procedure better?

Yea, reads like Google Translate.
1) Open the window and push the open button 4 more times
2) Close the window, but don't let go of the switch when it gets to the top for at least 2 seconds
3) Open it again, but let go of the button when it gets to the bottom
4) Close the window, but don't let go of the switch when it gets to the top for at least 2 seconds

IIRC, after the window gets to the top and you're holding the button for 2 seconds, a relay clicks. Then you know it's done.

Same with me. It happens when battery is disconnected. Will come back shortly most likely

What works for me:

1) With window closed, open it and continue to hold button for 10 seconds.
2) With window open, close it and continue to hold button for 10 seconds.

Should be good after that.
