Default Auto up as well as down?

Do our Focus have auto up as well as auto down on all 4 windows?

I've lost my auto up on all 4 for some reason.

Recently disconnect your battery?

You might need to reset it by holding the up switch in the up position for 5 seconds.

Well funny you mention that as my time/date on my radio was all up the **** after I got it back from Sunbury Ford, but the stations were the same still.

I haven't disconnected the battery myself, unless the dealership did.

I'll try tomorrow, thanks much for that.

The loom to my front doors was disconnected for my speaker install and I lost auto up and down functions. DZFord has the answer though. Did that and it was all good to go again.

yes this is how you fix it

basically wind them all up, and then hold the switch for another few seconds

i think the book talks about it needing to re-set the end position for the windows' anti-jam feature

Yeah these guys have got it, to reset it you need to do up and down and hold them for a little bit after you've got them into their positions.

I've dc'd my battery enough times to know my radio code without needing to look in my manual now.

Single press of the switch for up and down.

Also has global open and global close from the key fob.
Walk up to your car on a hot day and hold the unlock button for a few seconds and all the windows and sunroof open.

Leave the car with windows open, press and hold the close button for a few seconds and all the windows and sunroof close.

Close function also has bounce back if anything gets trapped.

Great feature.

Is this on LV as well????

I have a button next to the window controllers that I have no clue as to its purpose. Sort of long and narrow with a window on it.

Is this the auto up / down button?? I have pressed it a few times and it doesn't do anything.

confess I thought the long button on drivers arm rest locked out the individual window switches so the kids could not open them.

I tried holding the window switch on the drivers side up for 5 seconds, nothing.

So do I have to go down, then up and hold it up?

Thanks much guys

It's a safety mechanism, close the door first and then switch on the ignition, when you press the switch down if you take a closer look at it there should be a small orange light which illuminates . Once that light is on the rear windows cannot be wound down via the rear door switches

Thanks much guys

I think it goes:

Press down until the window lowers all the way. Quickly release and re-press down again. Hold for 5 seconds.
Release and press up until the window raises all the way. Quickly release then press up again. Hold for 5 seconds.

Rinse and repeat for remaining windows.
