Window Motor Initialization: Notes

NOTE: Refer to DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION , INTELLIGENT ACCESS WITH PUSH BUTTON START to review the procedures for achieving the various ignition states (ignition OFF, ignition in ACCESSORY, ignition ON, ignition START) on vehicles with this feature.

NOTE: Initialization is required to learn both the full UP and full DOWN positions and the profile of the glass as it travels through the glass channel. Once initialized, obstacle detection is enabled. This procedure is required for LH/RH front (SHO, Limited) or LH front (SE, SEL) window motors.

NOTE: A new (original factory setting) or de-initialized window motor will not operate in one-touch up mode until initialized. If a new window motor has been installed, proceed to the initialization procedure.

NOTE: The window motors must be initialized whenever: a new window regulator and motor is installed, a new window glass is installed, a glass top run removal and installation or when carrying out any operation in which grease or lubricants are applied to the window system.

NOTE: If diagnosing a window switch concern, carry out the window Initialization procedure before installing a new window switch.

NOTE: All window components (window glass, window regulator, window motor, seals and glass top run) must be installed and tightened to specification before carrying out the initialization procedure.
