All my "automatic buttons" haven't been working.

All my windows use to be able to roll up with one click. Now I have to hold the button up the whole time. Even with my sunroof, I have to keep pushing the sunroof button for it to open completely. Before, with one click my sunroof would've opened. Anyone ever experience that?

that tends to happen alot when you remove the battery, I would think there would be a small battery to memorize those features. But to set those back up again - turn your system to the On position - do not turn on the engine.

Press and hold the windows button down for about 5 seconds on each button to set the auto back up

Same thing with the sunroof. Open all the way and then close it, I know it seems like you have to push the switch about 20 times for it close all the way. When it finally closes, then you hold the switch in the closed position for about 10 seconds or longer (first time I had to do it, I thought I held it the closed position long enough, but it didn't work, so had to do it all over again :rolleyes: ), and then it should act correctly.

One would think these would be the default behaviour of the systems, instead of the exception.

I tried and I couldn't get it. I put my car in "On" mode. I held each window button down for 5-10 seconds and when I turned my car on, I got nothing. I had success with the sunroof though.

Had success with my first try, thanks again.

I believe you have to hold the button in the UP position for 5+ seconds on each window once it's rolled up, not the DOWN position.

That is correct.

Options are nice to have...
I only have the front windows/sun roof set for the one touch function.

This didn't fork for me. In fact, it somehow totally disabled my driver's window for several power cycles. The answer from justanswer.com is the most complete and accurate:

"To program your auto up feature for the auto windows, simply put the window you are programing down using the auto feature, then hold the window up button all the way up, but hold it for 10 seconds after the window has fully shut. Then release the switch for 10 seconds.Then try it's function, by auto down all the way, and auto up all the way."

Thanks for all the info, regardless!

It's the same advice that @six-legs posted.

Nope - the missing information was "Then release the switch for 10 seconds.".

I was referring to this quote from @pedsemdoc
