Default Changed battery now windows don't work

Hello Everyone,

I recently changed my battery, and now the only window I can operate using the driver side controls is the driver side window. The other three windows no longer respond to the driver side buttons. The other three windows will operate if i use the button on those corresponding doors, and those buttons are constantly blinking as well. Furthermore, If I try to open the windows using the key fob, only the driver side window will open.

Is there some kind of button sequence to re-engage the other three windows?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Put the windows half way then push up and hold button for 5 Second when the window get to top. Do it to every window at the window switch

it is in the manual, don't freak out--it is normal! Just so what is says above. You will notice that there is power to the system and the buttons are illuminated.

This will happen everytime you disconnect the battery. If the window switches are blinking, do as LexusIS305 and hold down each window switch up and down for 5 sec and your good!!

This questions pops up pretty much every week, it's almost worth having a dedicated sticky for it.

Like everyone has said....it's normal operation when ever the battary is disconnected. Check your Owner's manuel. It will provide you step by step instructions.

Good Luck
