Default Automatic window problem...

Just dusted her off now that winter is over but having a problem with my electric windows. When I open the door the window does it's little roll down a bit but when I shut the door it does not go back up like it should?? Doing it on both sides so I wonder if there is a setting or switch I hit or shut off?


Ideas??


Thanks!

If the battery was disconnected or allowed to run down while in storage you need to re-index the windows.

Get in, close the doors,
Start the car or put in Ign On without starting;
Roll both windows down,
Roll both windows up (separately or together, doesn't matter) BUT
When they reach the full up position HOLD the switch UP for an additional 3 seconds and release,
Then pull the UP switch again for 3 seconds and release,
Done
