Hidden function of power window button that makes driving easier for you

Sometimes the power window may be deprogrammed, making it impossible to lower or raise the window. There is a simple trick to correct the situation. Remember that next time this problem arises.

Since Karl Benz patented the first motorized vehicle in January 1886, the automobile has undergone significant development. The design, parts, features and bodywork, among others, have been the most advanced elements in recent years. The transition from manual windows to electric windows is one of the biggest changes in recent years.

Previously, all cars had a manual window and distracted driving was common. With technological advancement, this problem has disappeared in new car models. Most cars now come with power windows that automatically raise or lower the window with the push of a button. It’s fast, easy and effective.

Although using a power window seems simple, sometimes this system gets deprogrammed, especially when the car’s battery starts to weaken or is disconnected. The symptoms are often the same: either it is impossible to lower the window (which is annoying), or it is possible to lower it without raising it (which is even more annoying). What to do in this case? There is a technique that few people know about, but it is very effective for reprogramming a power window.

Simply lower the window completely and hold the button down for three seconds in the same direction. Then do the opposite: raise the window and hold the button for another three seconds. After this “reset” trick, the system should work perfectly.

This method is valid for many car brands. If this doesn’t work, check your car’s manual or search for solutions on specialized websites. This procedure is simple and quick, and there is no need to go to your mechanic. In just a few seconds, you will be able to solve a problem that would have cost you a lot of money if you had not known this tip.
