When the battery is disconnected
The power windows must be initialized in order to ensure proper operation. (Perform
for each window with the switch for each seat.)
Open the window halfway.
Fully close the window by pulling the switch up and continue holding the
switch for one second.
The indicator on the switch changes from a flashing pattern to being on when initial
settings are complete.

Yes, from each individual door.

You might want to crack your manual... where this is rather clearly explained.

Why not take a look see? You can learn all sorts of things in the manual...some people actually read them!

I had the same problem with my car when I disconnected the battery once... What I did to make it work again is go to each individual door and put the window down all the way, I had to hold the button until I heard the relay "click" off, and then roll it back up. Once I did that for each window, everything worked again.

yes it did thanks so much for your help, I have no idea what homeboys problem is with the thumbs down, I thought this forum was to help people out regardless of the question. So what if I didn't crack open the manual....if someone asked my help for something I certainly wouldn't give them a smart *** remark about it. anyways thanks again for all thoes that gave positive feed back. next time if I need help I guess I'll question individuals so that people like myself don't get slammed infront of thousands of members for asking an innocent question....

True, the important part was that he got the help he needed. He does have a point though. I had the same problem he had when I disconnected my battery and I did the exact same thing he did which was to come on here and seek help. Luckily I too got the help I needed, though without someone lecturing me for not reading my manual, which is how things should be.

see its people like you that says to others that its ok to slam people with innocent questions, why say take it easy we helped you end of story. why don't you say something to the guy that slamed me instead, to not slam others and to help. I hope one of these days you don't or he doesn't have a serious question or innocent one and someone to just laugh and say something idiotic... it all comes down to KARMA. I come to this forum cuz I love it when you guys help each other out its like our own little community but when you guys start slamming people don't you think it starts to seem like a bunch of kids with whos got the better toy. we should all help each other out..
