How to set up one-touch window lift for the 2021 CR-V?

Press and hold the switch until the window moves to the desired position. There are three types of window closers: 1. Time-controlled type: It requires removing the instrument panel cover under the original steering wheel and the driver's side door panel to locate several related wires, including the original car window central lock trigger signal wire, power wires for the four window control motors, ground wire, relay return wire, etc. Then, strip and connect these wires one by one to the relevant wiring of the window closer; 2. Program-controlled type: The basic functions and control principles are largely similar to the time-controlled type. Due to the low cost and small memory capacity of microcontrollers, typically within the range of 128-512 bytes, the limited capacity can only support some simple judgment levels. In practical applications, it is still relatively prone to misoperation, and the accuracy is not precise enough; 3. Intelligent window closing system: This mainly uses electronic modules to complete the detection function through the program set in the chip on the host, ensuring the window closing steps are completed smoothly. This product can detect the magnitude of window lift resistance. When the window is closed, it interrupts the power supply to protect the electric window motor from damage and prevents the battery from being easily drained.

Setting up the one-touch window lift for the 21st-gen CRV is quite straightforward. First, I sit in the driver's seat and turn the key to the ON position to power up without starting the engine. Then, I select a window, such as the driver's side, lower it all the way down, and then pull and hold the window switch upward until the window is fully closed, keeping it held for an extra second or two before releasing. The system then memorizes the one-touch auto-lift feature. One-touch window lift is very practical, especially when temporarily parked or during windy or rainy conditions, as it eliminates the need for distracted operation. However, sometimes the button may get stuck or malfunction, mostly due to dust accumulation or fuse aging. It's recommended to clean the switch with a cotton swab every six months. Developing good habits can extend the lifespan of the windows.

As an owner of the 21st-gen CR-V, I personally tested the one-touch window lift setting, and it's super easy. With the car powered on, lower either the driver or passenger window, then quickly pull and hold the switch upward until the window closes completely, and wait an extra second before releasing. Once set, just press the button once, and the window will automatically go up, saving time and effort. My kids often play with the windows, so the one-touch operation is much safer, preventing pinched fingers. If the window doesn't move, try resetting it a few times or check the manual. Don’t worry if the function occasionally fails—cleaning the contacts usually fixes it.

One-Touch Window Operation Method Simplified: After the vehicle is powered on, lower the window completely, then pull the switch upward and hold until closed, maintaining for 1-2 seconds to allow the controller to learn. Test the one-touch function for proper operation after successful setup. This system prevents misoperation and is easy to maintain; regular checks are recommended to avoid jamming.
