The method to restore the one-touch window lift function for the Bora key is: 1. Press the window lift button 6 times, releasing it briefly after each press; 2. Each press will lower the window, and upon the 6th press, the window will automatically rise, indicating the restoration is complete. Taking the 2021 Bora as an example, it belongs to the compact car category, with body dimensions of: length 4663mm, width 1815mm, height 1462mm, and a wheelbase of 2688mm, with a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters. The 2021 Bora is equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged engine, producing a maximum horsepower of 116PS, maximum power of 85kW, maximum torque of 200Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I also experienced the one-touch window lift failure with my own Bora before, and it was quite troublesome having to manually press the button to raise the window during that time. The recovery method is very simple: after getting in the car, turn the key to the ignition position but don't start the engine, then locate the window button, press and hold the window down button to lower the window completely to the bottom and continue holding for two seconds without releasing; then press and hold the window up button until the window is fully raised to the top and hold for about three more seconds; the system will emit a small ding sound to indicate the reset is complete. In most cases, the failure is caused by battery disconnection or the anti-pinch function triggering a position offset. Regularly checking the battery status is a good habit to avoid similar malfunctions. Keeping the car free of clutter to prevent window jams also helps maintain the normal function of the one-touch feature. The entire process takes at most one minute, and repeating the steps usually restores the function.
As a car enthusiast, I often tinker with these features. When the one-touch power window on the Bora fails, it usually means the body control module needs to reinitialize its position memory. Here's how: First, power on the car without starting the engine. After settling in, press and hold the window down button all the way for two seconds. Then, press and hold the window up button until the window is fully closed, and continue holding for over three seconds to let the computer system complete calibration. If it doesn't work, repeat the process. This is essentially a soft reset for the window sensors. Maintaining the vehicle's electrical system can prevent such issues. A little tip: Window seals are prone to aging with weather changes; applying some lubricant can prevent sticking and affecting the one-touch function. Stable battery voltage is also crucial—don't overlook routine checks.
