Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Window Motor Programming
If battery on vehicle has been disconnected, each side door window regulator must be reprogrammed in order for express UP or express DOWN feature to operate properly. Ensure there is no obstruction keeping window from closing completely or opening completely. Programming with an obstruction will cause express up or express down to spot where obstruction occurred. Use following steps to program side door window regulator motors:
- Press and hold power window switch in DOWN position until window is fully down. Continue holding power window switch in DOWN position for 3 seconds.
- Press and hold power window switch in UP position until window is fully up. Continue holding power window switch in UP position for 3 seconds.
- Power window regulator motor is now programmed for express function. Repeat process for all power windows.
