Upgraded my door speakers today and thought I knicked a wire somewhere with the drill. Guess I had the switch unplugged too long. Can't believe Honda used a system like this. Thank you so much for taking the time to share this!
I disconnected my battery a few days ago to try out a pocket jump starter that I bought, then I noticed a problem with the door window switch. Thanks for saving me the trouble of removing the window switch! You can learn a lot on TH-cam.
YOU ARE A LIFE SAVE!!!!! I own a 2016 Honda CRV SE and My driver side rear window wouldn’t work at all and after following your instructions it worked!!!!!!!! Saved me a trip to the dealer, keep up the great work!!!!
This worked for even a slightly different problem: I couldn't operate my passenger window from my driver side controls. Passenger controls still worked but driver side controls operated the other three windows but not the passenger one. Then I noticed that from passenger controls the automatic function wasn't working either - regular up and down were fine - so I reset the automatic function from the passenger side just like described in this video and magically my driver's side control of the passenger window came back to life. Saved me $500!! Thanks! HONDA PILOT 2016
My Daughters CRV had this issue and I forgot that she had the battery replaced recently. Sent her this video and she had it fixed in less than 5 minutes, thanks!
This is how TH-cam has transformed our lives for the better. This is a very informative and easy to understand video. Congrats on helping out so many of your fellow Americans 🇺🇸 + our friendly neighbors around the world 🌎
It worked!!! The other videos I watched were lengthy, 4 times, checking fuses and doing the hokey pokey!!! Yours was to the point and worked like a charm. THANK YOU!
Wow. Exactly what I needed. You did a great job on this! Literally sitting in my car and had that issue after my battery died and needed jumped. I'm so glad it wasn't anything serious!
Thank you so much for taking time to show us how to do this. I called the dealership and asked if the battery had anything to do with it (which I just replaced). They said it shouldn't and to bring it in for diagnostic testing. Wow, how stupid I would have been. You just saved me a bunch of money and wasted time. Thanks a million. You are appreciated very much!!!!!
Cathy Holley Thanks Cathy! Many dealerships & auto repair shops like to run the bill up as high as they can.....looks like you found one. I would suggest finding a more reputable repair shop in the future. I am glad I could help! :)
Worked as a treat for me on my Honda CR-V 2007. My Auto on the RHS window (driver side in UK) wasn't working properly .When try to auto close was going up and instead of stopping was going back more than halfway down on its own. After the Mississippi trick works as it should. The easiest fix ever.Cheers mate.
This also worked on my 2013 Accord EX-L passenger side window. It would not go down from the drivers side and only manually from the passenger switch. I performed this procedure with the ignition button in run mode on the passenger side and it fixed the problem. Thanks!
easy/quick instructions and worked perfectly. my battery had lost power and the window quit doing the auto up/down. it was fixed in 30 secs thanks to you!
Wow... I can't thank you enough. Having had a flat battery in m y 2007 UK spec Civic, my passenger window stopped working from the drivers side control. I tried your tip on the passenger side control which re set the switch and in turn allowed the driver's control to operate it again. Saved me taking the door panel off or replacing switches! many thanks :)
Awesome! I recently disconnected the battery to remove seats, then reconnected .. automatic windows wouldn't work anymore... was so close to pulling apart the door to inspect the regulator thinking there's an issue there.. followed the video and now it's all working.! Thanks for the video :) p.s. Those 20 Dislikes are obviously from 'Honda' as they would of charged a mint to "repair".
My 2019 Honda Ridgeline had a problem where the passenger window wouldn't function from the driver controls. I performed these same steps on the passenger window and it was automagically fixed. Thank You!
I like the way you present your tip on how to fix the problem, quick, simple and easy to understand. Some auto mechanics won't give nor share that kind of solution but they will give their customers so many other huge and complicated problems to make money. Thanks to the honest, willing citizens like you who are willing to share their expertise and knowledge, and know-how on certain fields, we are really getting so much from you and it helps me, big time! Thanks again.
Thanks a lot!!!! Wow, I thought iwas going to have to order parts, etc. Thanks for your kindness to share with others!! God bless!! I'm old and that made my life a little easier!!👍
Thanks a lot sir. After i change my door on Honda Civic 8th generation 2007 from left side the button from my side was not working for passenger window i thought that have electrical problem. After i did this from your video on the window from passenger side the button from my side works again. Thank so much very good video! 👏👏👏
Yay... worked like a champ! Thank you! This other dude's video showed this convoluted process of turning the key off and on multiple times along with making the window go up and down multiple times.
Amazing! Fitted a new battery yesterday and when I went to open the passenger window down at the airport to wave goodbye, my window wouldn't open... Followed this simple video and boom...It's opening again! Well chuffed :D Thanks!
This worked on my Ford Five Hundred as well. Thought it was a bad switch, but the window still went up and down, so why spend $50-100 for the auto function I figured. Thanks for the simple cure!
Thank you so much for save my time and money, my is 2008 Acura MDX. My problem is driver main switch can't control front passenger side window, and lucky is the passenger side switch work but not auto function just like video, so I tried to follow the video, but I didn't have much hope, turn out it works, wow amazing. Hope help other people.
Wow, I thought I was going to have to take the door apart and replace the whole control module! My main control’s passenger window switch wasn’t working (even tho did work on passenger side control) and all I had to do was do this procedure on the passenger door switch and it reset the main control!!! Literally took me 5 seconds.
This made me so freaking happy. Was worried I’d haves big deal on my hands. Great video and I must say you are fantastic at giving clear concise instruction and information
Wow, I just save some major bucks. Great video, easy to understand. My problem was the passenger window would work for its side but wouldn't work from the driver's side control console. Followed your advice on the passenger side, with the start button on accessory (2 pushes) and now everything works like a charm.
You're my hero! I couldn't find any damage of any sort. Then I found your video and fixed it instantly. One note - on my 2014 Civic I have to turn the key to the On position. The windows don't work in the accessory position. Thanks!
+Rick Cavallaro Awesome Rick! Glad to help! And thanks for the update about the 2014 Civic.....I am certain that many vehicles will be the same as yours, but it is nice to know that this procedure solves so many people's problems.
great tip bro!. it really works and very helpfull for me. my crv front left windows got stuck in its 1/2 closed position. i couldnt get to bring it up again. simply it was just stucked. kinda clueless and confused at that time. :'( than i searched for solution around the web and found your tips!.. and *wheeewh* it helpppps!!. *MANY THANKS* once again bro!. with best regards from jakarta, indonesia. :)
That was great! Thanks! Short, simple, to the point, no opinions, just experience and advice which is perfect. I was able to reset it while driving as well!
totally cool! kind of a relief actually! So I've got a relatives Odyssey and have been doing some work on it and disconnected the battery for an extended time. I was starting to think "oh great!" I thought that sob was working before hand. ...at anyrate, thx! worked like a charm 👍
I thank you for posting this information. It is something I didn't realize had to be done after changing the battery. Most important, kudos for the matter-of-fact manner in which you do it with good sound and sparing us the silly loud music many posters often do.
Your the man!!!! Thank you so much...I just had the same issue and watched your video. Works perfectly now. I'll have a beer for you tonight! 2010 Honda Element
You just saved me a whole lot of money and a bunch of time! Dude thanks for your video and thanks for putting it up you did a great job and thanks for helping us all out!
Good video, that was easy. You weren't kidding when you said anyone could do it. I thought you were going to do surgery on the door and open it up. I don't have a Honda but it's good to know.
Excellent. thank you. Just ran into this today when I was replacing my door actuator while working with my teen son. We were happy actuator worked but puzzled why the window auto function no longer worked. thx again!
Short, to the point, and explained well. This is the type of video that makes TH-cam actually useful.
Upgraded my door speakers today and thought I knicked a wire somewhere with the drill. Guess I had the switch unplugged too long. Can't believe Honda used a system like this. Thank you so much for taking the time to share this!

Trick still working after 8yrs. Thank you
It worked!!! The other videos I watched were lengthy, 4 times, checking fuses and doing the hokey pokey!!! Yours was to the point and worked like a charm. THANK YOU!
This did the trick after my window stopped automatically going down/up after I disconnected my battery to replace my seat belt tensioner, thank you!!
Wow. Exactly what I needed. You did a great job on this! Literally sitting in my car and had that issue after my battery died and needed jumped. I'm so glad it wasn't anything serious!
