Default window won't index

My driver's side window stopped indexing up. The window motor seems to work fine. I can roll it up or down, but, when I get in or out it won't roll up that 1" automatically. If I'm in the car I have to roll it up from the switch. Anybody experience this or know how to fix it?

There was a post on here about resetting the window indexing.

Owners manual has a solution for this on page 2-17.

Close the door. Raise the window using the switch. Hold the UP switch for 3 seconds after the window is closed. Release the switch. Hold the UP switch again for 3 seconds and release.

There is a "fix" in the manual. I think it is "Hold the window button up for 5 (I think)seconds then down for the five (I think) Count. This resets the index function.

Page 2-17 of the manual tells you how to re-initialize the index feature.

1. Close the door.
2. Raise the window by pulling up the switch.
3. Hold the up switch for three seconds after the
window is closed. Release the switch.
4. Hold the up switch again for three seconds
and release.

its good to have a hard copy that you can abuse instead of the
original. printing all 396 pages also lets you do your part to ensure
that we dont get overpopulated by spotted owls.
