Default Need help! (power window problem)

I was deadening my doors and now the automatic windows don't work. Does any one know what the problem is?

There is a thread that describes how to re-set your power windows after the power is cut. Do a simple search, this was a common fear amoung CL members but is no big deal and takes under a minute to rectify.

here is the link https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=291026

Check out your owners manual too.

Still baffled why you would disconnect the battery take the door panels off.

I believe you to go to each car window and push the window button up and down and that for some reason let the drivers side door once again have control of those windows.

No door airbags like Mercedes or Beemers, simply A piller Curtain front and rear, knee airbags, side front seat SIPS bags and the standard steering wheel and passenger bag in the dash.

I knew how to reset it. It's just I thought you only had to do that if you disconnect the battery. Weird. I got it fixed though. Thanks alot guys!

Not just disconnect the battery. If you disconnect the switch assembly in the driver's side door you'll need to reset them. AMHIK.
