Re-initializing power window

[dharris45]

I am new to this forum, so thanks for any assistance.

I have a 2007 Avalon and just installed a Blueconnect bluetooth systems. It was necessary to disconnect the battery while installing the systems.

Now the front passenger side power window does not operate from the master switch on the driver side door. The passenger side window operates fine from the passenger side window switch.

I found a reference that says any time the battery terminal has been disconnected, the driver’s door power window and front passenger’s door power window must be re-initialized.

I have actually purchased a one day subscription to Techinfo.toyota.com and download everything I could find related to the power windows in the Repair Manual and Electrical Systems Manual. There is also a mention that "Front passenger must be initialized from actual multiplex network switch assembly. After initialization operation (from the multiplex network master switch assembly to the multiplex network switch assembly will be allowed."

Can anyone tell me how to do this.

Thanks,

Don

Initialize power window

(a) Ignition switch on (IG).
(b) (Power window can be partially or fully open.)
(c) Close the power window by holding the Auto UP knob ON.
(d) Continue to hold the Auto UP knob ON a minimum of 1 second after the power window completely closes.
(e) Release the Auto UP knob.

The Front passenger must be initialized from actual multiplex network switch assembly. After initialization operation (from the multiplex network master switch assembly to the multiplex network switch assembly) will be allowed


INITIALIZATION OF SLIDING ROOF MOTOR
(a) The sliding roof AUTO operation and the jam protection function may not operate normally if the battery is disconnected/reconnected, replaced or recharged. Initialize the sliding roof system using the method below.
(1) Turn the ignition switch on (IG).
(2) Initialize the sliding roof by pressing and holding the TILT UP switch until the roof glass tilts upward fully (the roof glass automatically tilts downward slightly after fully tilting upward).
(3) Release the switch.

Hope this helps

The following comes from the techinfo site you visited. It's directed at 2006 Avalon's but might apply as well to some '07s, especially if your car has a "smart key" and battery was disconnected. I have converted the TSB from PDF format to TXT so it will stay in the thread and not "disappear" as PDFs here tend to after awhile.

While the TSB talks about recharging a low battery, this could very well apply as well to vehicles who have had their battery disconnected. One would at the very least pull the ground starp off a battery in order to charge with it in place under the hood. Doing that "disconnects" the battery.
