W210 power window problem

[lucky178tb]

G'day all,
I have continued this problem on from my post from steering wheel removal. I replaced the steering wheel 2day. All went well until I re-connected the battery to find that the one touch window switch's wouldnt work..only the hold down would work Here's the deal...I opened up the boot while the battery was disconnected nd I had to do it using the key but thats all i did. After the battery was re-connected I opened the boot lid from inside nd tried the switches nd to my amazement started to work using the one-touch but only while the boot was open. So I locked nd unlocked the boot again nd tried the switch's, only this time the one-touch didnt work....so Im wondering WHAT THE HELL I"VE DONE !!!???? Any help ???

Iirc psuh and hold the switch and hold in the up position even when windows have stopped for 5 secs or so and that window should now work one touch do same for all other windows.

With the battery having been disconnected the window needed to be re-calibrated so that it knows what position it is in. You'll probably need to do this with all your other windows too.

Hi,
If you have sunroof, you might have to do it to that, (i have too on my C43) though it doesn,t open like the one touch windows, it still needs to know when to stop.
You may also have the BAS/ESP warning lights on, this will clear by taking the steering from lock to lock several times.
