Window trouble
I own a 2005 convertible with manual tranny. Wife parked the car over the weekend with interior lights on and I had to charge the battery. Now having trouble with the windows. The windows normally go down a quarter inch after opening the door. The windows then go back up after the door is closed. Currrently the windows go down the quarter inch but do not come back up with opening and closing the doors. Any suggestions?

Check your owners manual, you need to re-index your windows. It takes just a few seconds to do it. It goes something like you just raise the windows all the way up but hold the button for an extra 5 seconds and then it will be set.

Not quite. This will do it.
Close the car door. Raise the window and hold the up switch an extra 3 seconds. Release. Without lowering the window, hold the up switch again for 3 seconds. Release. Done.
This is called resetting of the window indexing or power window initialize and is in the owner's manual. See page 2-17 of the 2005 owner’s manual, page 2-18 of the 2006 owner’s manual, page 87 of the 2007 owner’s manual, page 2-18 of the 2008 owner’s manual, page 2-18 of the 2009 owner's manual, ,or page 3-18 of the 2010 owner's manual.
