Default GX470 Window reset

I have a 2004 GX470, I was able to follow the window reset instructions from the guide and from the forum on how to reset all four doors, however when I got to the right rear door I was able to bring the window down it would go down, but will not come back up so I decide to open a thread since I didn't see it in another thread. Not sure how to reset the rear window if I am not able to bring it back up, the switch green light would blink but not coming up.

You can hear the motor run when going down, but not when you lift up on the switch that's on the rear door? (i.e. you're not at the driver's door - you're at the door you're setting?) If not, that would be unusual - there's just two wires to it so if it runs one way it ought to run the other. Was a liquid spilled into the switch?

Don't forget to set the auto-close sunroof and your memory seat settings, as well as your radio presets.

All the auto-set is done for the sunroof and the other windows. I took the switch out of the door that is giving problem and it does not look like anything spilled in it, so I am not sure what is going on, I was just wondering if there is a quick fix if not I will have to spend some money and replace it.

Thanks Chip.

My drivers window loses its memory every time the key is cycled. Every other window retains it. Also if it’s cold outside(below 40)... my left rear window only works as auto up and down, you can’t stop it in between. Lol

these window switches were ahead of their time. Hopefully I can clean the switch circuit and fix the issue.

We we will see... just not that high on the list.
