Window indexing not working
I did a search but couldn't find anything, but could have sworn I have read about this somewhere. I experienced the DBS a couple of days ago and now the windows won't index after I close the doors. Is there a re-learning process for this or is it a "dealer only fix"?

It's in the FAQ section as well as your owner's manual, although you might need the help of the FAQ section to help you find it there.

I guess Clem's method is getting to be one of those "internet legends" that may or may not work.
