2008 Pontiac Grand Prix BaseSECTION De-initialization
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Hummer H2. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

This procedure is used to clear the existing window position memory and load profile, which will allow the system to be re-initialized after components other than the motor/module assembly are serviced.

The following steps must be completed within 6 seconds:

  1. Cycle the ignition ON and OFF 5 times.
  2. Turn the ignition ON.
  3. Press and release the IP midgate window switch in the DOWN position.

If the glass did not move in step 3 the de-initialization is complete.
