Its getting cold
Hello. This is my first post. Just purchased a 2008 LS 460 a month ago. The power windows have always operated correctly. A couple of hours ago I got in the car and the only window that will work is the drivers window. The other windows would not work at all, not even from their independent door switches. I then pushed the "unlock" button on my fob and all of the windows went down (that means they all still work). Buy now they won't come up, either from the drivers switch or their independent door switches. Should I unhook and rehook the battery?
I have not seen this particular problem anywhere else. Usually the windows will still work from their independent door switches.
Can anyone help me? Don't want to go to dealer.

Unhooked negative side of battery and reconnected. No change in window status. Windows which would not work individually or with master drivers side switch did all go down when "unlock" button pushed for 3 seconds. But now they won't go up. Or light up. Or do anything.
If it's odd it comes my way.
Nothing out of the ordinary happened. Windows worked when i went in the store. Did not when I came out.

Success! Thank you RayLS. i have posted thanks. The master lockout switch was activated and all was locked out. Master drivers' switches don't work when master lockout switch is pressed. Probably pushed wrong button when I exited car. All windows work now and it is getting warmer.

Just FYI. If you happen to leave the windows open after exiting your car just PUSH and HOLD the black button on the door handle until all windows are closed. This works even if the master window lockout button is activated.
