Electric Window Unit Light Flashing

Hi Guys

Just sharing some info - I replaced the Prado electric mirrors with some "Clearview towing mirrors". In the process I disconnected the electric window switch to take the door skin off. After reassembly the Drivers window wouldn't operate properly and the light was flashing on the switch.
SOLUTION - Turn off the ignition and hold up switch then turn the ignition back on and keep the switch held up for 5 seconds. The unit reset itself and every thing is hunky dory!

Hi rattwood,
That's interesting to know. What year/model Prado was this for?

Cheers,
Declan.

Hi all
I had a problem with my 120 series, rear windows stopped winding up and down. The service manager told me that to reset, start with the drivers side, run the drivers window down, holding the button down, keep holding down for 5 seconds, wind back up, holding the button up, hold for a further 5 seconds, then repeat on all doors. This resets each door. All worked after that. Job well done... but weird! Michael

I did the same last week and had the same problem. Next day all was ok.
