How to reset the power windows after a power outage in an old Reiz?

Turn on the ignition switch to maintain power supply without starting the engine. Partially open the power window, then pull up the switch and hold for about 1 second after fully closing. Repeat the same operation for all four windows one by one, and check whether the auto-up/down function works normally. If it functions properly, the reset process is complete.
I've been driving my old Toyota Mark X for over a decade. After a power disconnection, the one-touch window function may fail, but don't panic - manual operation still works. The reset procedure is simple: turn the ignition key to ON position (don't start the engine), hold the window down button until the glass completely lowers (about 2-3 seconds), then press and hold the up button until fully closed for 5-10 seconds. The system will beep or automatically memorize the position. Power loss commonly occurs during battery replacement or jump starts - just reset once. Regularly check battery health to avoid minor faults from frequent discharge. Older car electronics are sensitive - ensure doors are closed during operation to prevent pinching. If initialization fails, first check the F2 fuse in the fuse box, then retry a few times - this usually solves it. Periodic cleaning of window tracks prevents sticking and extends vehicle durability with fewer issues.
