Hi all, I am having a problem with the auto up on my drivers window. We’ve followed the factory manual to reset the motor, and also the relearn procedure. I’m wondering if anybody has some new ideas I can try.
The vehicle is a 2001 LX 470. The auto up has always worked since I purchased the vehicle six months ago. Recently the drivers window stopped going up or down in the driver’s door. I ordered a new window motor and regulator from AutoZone, and had a mechanic install it. He said the regulator was fine, the problem was with the motor. He installed the doorman motor and the window slides freely up and down (with power), but it will not relearn the pinch sensor mechanism.
We thought it might be a bad doorman motor, so he had another mechanic he knows fix the OEM window motor. We reinstalled the OEM motor and we still have the same problem.
Early on, I sent them the factory reset procedure, the mechanic said he tried this 4-5 times, no luck: https://lc100e.github.io/pdf/rm/rm616e/m_be_0109.pdf
Both the mechanic and the guy who repaired the OEM motor have tried numerous (20+) times to relearn the mechanism…“hold down for 10-15 seconds at bottom, hold up for 10-15 seconds at top”. I’ve also tried this procedure a few times. None of us can get it to relearn. And they have both have experience doing this on Toyotas.
Nothing seems to work. The mechanic also tried disconnecting the battery for 15 minutes to see if that might hard reset the computer. But we’re having no luck.
Anybody have other tricks we could try?
