One touch window problems

Ok so I've had my battery disconnected and I have lost my one touch closing and comfort closing function on both sides, both windows drop on opening the doors, and the one touch opening and comfort opening still work.

So I've tried a couple of ways to re-initialize them with no luck, is there a trick I'm missing? When I try it I till have one touch opening, should that go until the window learns it's end points?
 
Try disconnecting battery again for an hour

Then reconnect, start the car, drop the window & count to twenty slowly while holding the down setting

Then back up, holding for another twenty

Mine can be temperamental, this sorted it last time
 
That didn't seem to work. So the windows and switches work correctly going down but on the way up the first click of operation does nothing with the window only operating on the second click, but in normal mode. I do get a very occasional click from the relays in the doors on the first press though. I'm guessing this is part of the problem but it doesn't lead me anywhere towards fixing it.
 
I lifted this info from a forum post a while ago to keep ln my useful info folder. The main thing is to remember to clear previous settings with the 'de-initialisation procedure', make sure you have doors/roof shut when you reset and follow the timing instructions. I don't remember which one worked for me but I had to have several goes. It's something to do during lock-down :thumbsup:

PROCEDURE #1
To de-initialize the windows:

Close both doors.
Lower both windows completely.
Immediately push the window switch down 4 times within 10 seconds.
Check that the automatic one-touch is not working.
To initialize the power windows:

Close both doors and the soft top (or hardtop installed).
Lower both windows completely.
Raise windows and hold the switches in the up position for one additional second after the windows reach the top.
Lower the windows 100 mm or approximately 4 inches.
Raise the windows and hold the switches in the up position for one additional second after the windows reach the top.
Close the windows using the one-touch feature function and ensure that this works correctly.

Repeat step 8 above for the right side window.
Note: Any brief interruption in performing the above steps may require for the entire initialization procedure to be repeated.

**********************************************************************************

PROCEDURE #2
Initialization is performed on the power window switch of the relevant door.
Requirements for correct initialization:
• Initialization with engine running
• Convertible top, doors and windows closed

Initialization comprises:
• Erasure of initialization
• Reinitialization

Erasure of initialization:
• Open door window glass fully
• Operate power window switch in "Open" position four times within 10 seconds

This erases initialization of the power window, anti-trapping protection and toll function are inactive.
Check whether one-touch control (toll) function is inactive, otherwise repeat procedure.

Reinitialization:
Avoid a break between the two steps!
• Open door window glass fully
• Operate and hold power window switch in "Close" position (second switch stage)
• Once the upper end position has been reached, hold power window switch in "Close" position for approx. 2 seconds longer
• Open door window glass fully
• Operate and hold power window switch in "Close" position (second switch stage)
• Once the upper end position has been reached, hold power window switch in "Close" position for approx. 2 seconds longer

**********************************************************************************

PROCEDURE #3

- Sit in the car, shut doors and put the key in position 1, so you have power to the windows.

- Push and hold down the window switch, and keep it held down for 5 seconds after the window is all the way down. This re-sets the memory, telling the motor, in effect, "Remember where we are now? Good."

- Roll window back up, and release switch. - Open door.
 
Right I've got them working now, I had seen and tried the two first procedures before with no luck but this time it worked. I'm not quite sure what I did different but I think you need to make sure that when you press the switch open four times at the beginning you need to do it quickly where as I had been doing it quite deliberately but still within 10 seconds. Can't be sure though.
If anyone else has this problem just keep trying the above, it will work but I think you have to get the sequence exactly right.
