Default Indexing windows and trunk won’t open after battery install

Back again.
Has anyone successfully indexed your windows on a C7 Vette?
I tried following the directions in the 2015 manual—page2-23. It did not work. Trunk won’t open either. I am told both issues are related and if I can index the windows, the trunk issue will be resolved. Hopefully I can avoid a trip to the dealer.
Thanks.

I have a 2015 and had to replace both of my Fob batteries. Are your doors opening and locking and unlocking with your Fob?

If this is a Vert, try cycling your top. If it is closed, "finish" closing it, if it is open, "finish" opening. This was a glitch that showed up on some Verts when the airbag/seatbelt recall was performed.

Thanks guys for you insights and suggestions. As suggested I cycled through the convertibale top “up and down” and the system finally reset itself and all issues were corrected so far as I know. I originally tried to lower the top but got the “too cold” message, but I did not think to try to finish the cycle even though I knew the top was secure.
I appreciate all the assistance. Thanks again to all who helped.
