3 of 4 windows stuck after jump start

OK saga continues. Jump worked. After 10 min the car started and ran.

I tried to synchronize the windows. Passenger rear works - even the one touch.

The other 3 are stuck in the down position.

I've tried holding the button in both directions for various amounts of time. No go. Friggin windows are stuck down.

I am gettin sick of a lot of MB 'features'.

HELP

THX!

Bob

Bob,

>>>"I am gettin sick of a lot of MB 'features'."<<<
You caused it, btw one feature is **lights on alarm** in the instrument cluster.
Don't come here cursing the car for what you did.

Now to start with no way is your battery fully charged from time stamp on your other post. You can only damage things with low voltage condition.
Fully charge your battery, then disconnect battery and re connect then sync your windows and re enter your radio code re set your seats ect.

Having the park light or whatever, the one to the left of off that looks like this -->

did not throw a lights are on code.

I jumped the car this morning and drove for an hour.


OK - windows are fixed. Using the remote I was able to get the windows to close. Then I was able to resync them from the inside and all seems to be working now. There is nothing in the manual at all indicating this to be the way to do it.

Smile Jump start

Driving the car for an hour will only ruin your battery more than it is already.The alternator is not meant to charge a completely drained battery and your system will not be up to proper charge.Get it on a charger overnight and get a full charge on it.
