Default Power window problem. Please help...

I had to take the battery out of my 2009 C6 coupe. After I put it back in the power windows do not seal the doors after the doors are closed. Everything else seems to works fine. I cna raise and lower the windows completely and the windows go down a little to release the seal when the driver or passenger doors is opened but the window do not go up and seal after the door is closed. I am able to raise the window for either door when in the car to obtain the seal but I can't do that after I exit the car so my driver window door is not sealed when I exit the car. Looked at the fuse boxes but I can't fiqure out what fuse would control this. Any help would be appreciated!!!

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. -JFP
Will need to be done every time after the battery is disconnected, then reconnected.

Also, you'll need to do both windows.

Only very rarely has anyone had to reset anything else. I'd say about 99% of the time, you're okay.
