Electric Windows Problem

[Guest EdwardJames]

My battery failed suddenly - completely useless. A new one has been fitted. Now the passenger side electronic window will not close properly. On pressing the button, the window rises to the top and then lowers open again by a few inches. The electronic system seems to have forgotten where the 'top closed' position is for that window (but not the driver's side window). How do I fix it. It must be possible to reset the thing somehow.

You could try opening each window fully, then closing but hold the close button for 10 secs after fully closed. That may or may not work. If not you'll have to do a battery/BSI reset first to clear the previously stored stop positions. This is the routine:

Put down the driver's window, close all the doors and remove the ign. key.

Wait 3 minutes then disconnect the pos. terminal on the battery and touch it to earth.

Wait a minute or so and reconnect the battery. Wait a further 15 seconds.

Do not open any doors but switch on the sidelights through the window.

Switch on the ignition and check the systems functionality.

Hold the lock button down for 10 seconds.

Remove the key and open and close the doors and test the locking system.

Start the engine and close the windows pressing the button till they reach the top and continue to hold for a few seconds.
