Default Window Drop

When I pull the inside door latch to open the drivers door, it seems the window drop is cycling upa and down...is it a simple adjustment or should i keep doing as I am now...pulling on the door inside handle and then pulling on latch to open door. That seems to prevent the cycling.

Thank you

I had the same problem. Turned out it was a weak battery. Start there and see if that fixes it.

Reprogram the window. To do this you push the window down button and hold until you hear or feel a click. Then push the window button for the window to close and hear or feel the click. This should be done when you are in the car and the door is closed. The window should operate properly by opening a slight bit when the door is opened and close when the door is closed. Keep in mind that a weak battery is often the cause.

Had the same problem. Reprogramming the window memory worked for me. "Run the window all the way down and hold for 5 to 10 seconds. Will hear a faint click inside of door cavity. Run the window all the way up and hold for 5 to 10 seconds. Will hear the same faint click. Reprogramming complete!" As simple as that. Don't know the initial cause but occurred with mine after not driving it for a couple of weeks.
