Go to each window and hold the button down while the window lowers and closes. This should reset the windows.

For the roof, press and hold the tilt button while the roof tilts open and closed, slides open and closed. Release the button and it should be reset.

For the rear hatch open it and close it manually.

Removal of the battery will also reset your transmission and cause it to relearn your driving style.

I may have forgot some but I think that covers it. I'd also suggest that your Lexus mechanic is full of BS. I'd talk to the service manager about his suggestion that the parts all wore out at once or find another dealership.

ps: Welcome to the forum.
I had the same "problem", did your fix and it worked. I guess I should read the manual next time. Thanks!

Your forum name caught my attention as I own a MR2. I bought my 91 MR2 new in the fall of 1990 and still smile when I get behind the wheel.

Happy that I was able to assist in reseting your RX.
