Default HELP- windows dont go up or down

hi guys,
I just replaced the battery in my gs 350. Now, from the driver side I can not control the passenger windows. They still work, but not from the driver side. There is no blown fuse alert on the cluster.

what can it be and how do i fix thanks

you have to relearn all the windows. pretty much what was said above. you'll have to use the switch for each window and roll down and up all 4 windows. then the controls on the drivers side should work for all 4. also check your sunroof, its probably not 1 touch anymore.

did you recently disconnect the battery??? I remember when they installed my coilovers they ran electrical wiring to run the EDFC and when I picked up the car the windows wouldn't move. They did something and had it working quickly. I hope its a quick fix for you

Go to each window and hold it down all the way. Then pull it all the way up. That should do the trick. This will re-initialize all your windows so that driver side can control all windows again.

Do the same with your sunroof as well too.

LOL I8...he said "I just replaced the battery in my gs 350" I guess you have to disconnect it to replace it.

why would you do that when the fix is so simple?
