They need to be re-indexed.
I forget exactly.
Hold the button up a few extra seconds past fully up, or down.....or both...
I forget in my old age!

The window re-indexing procedure is in the manual. Very easy.

Page 2-17 in the owners manual "Close the door -Pull up om the window switch for 3 seconds-hold up switch for 3 seconds" Indexing will return. The only thing you lose when you disconnect battery is the window indexing. The radio presets have flash memory and they remain.

Actually, you need to release the switch after 3 seconds past the up position, then hold the up switch AGAIN for 3 seconds. Wasn't sure if that's what you were trying to say or not.
