Window fails to operate after battery replacement

[peterzoom]

I wonder if anyone has any advice or perhaps has had this experience themselves and solved it! 
After fitting a new battery my drivers door window is not functioning at all. The passenger window is perfect, but the drivers will not operate or drop/raise when the handles are pulled. 
I can hear a faint click when operating the switch, but absolutely no fresh air facilitation from the glass http://911uk.com/images/smiles/dontknow.gif 

Any advice that would avoid an unnecessary strip down of the door would be greatly appreciated. http://911uk.com/images/smiles/thumb.gif

Please post the exact model and year of your car.

Your usually gone loose window normalization after battery swap. I’ve seen it several times that techs cannot get the window to renormalize, it’s usually due to them not having the door completely closed. Close the drivers door all the way ignition on and than try it. Good luck!

For late model Porsches, it is a simple task to restore the auto window up and down after a battery swap or dead battery that has been charged back up

 

Turn the car on

There are 2 up positions, one with a single pull, and the second with a firmer pull of the switch and a subtle second click

Lower the window all the way and then all the way up with the first pull.  Then when the window is all the way up, pull the switch with past the second click.  That should do it.

 

BTW, all of this is in the owners manual.

Thanks for all the replies.

My car is a 2001 Carrera 4.

Maybe I need to be a little clearer about the issue.

After changing the battery I went through the usual setting the clock, re-tuning the infotainment system and set about re-setting the window memory. I started with the passenger window and all went 100% as expected. However, when I tried to go through the same process with the drivers window... nothing, zero response from the switch. So no up or down movement at all with the window switch, nor when either of the handles is operated. If I listen very closely there is a faint click when I operate the switch. It is as if the window is stuck.

I have replaced, over the years and various 996, 986, 986, 987 window regulators and all of them groaned or moaned before giving up the ghost. Nothing like this has happened and it does seem very coincidental that it should happen immediately after renewing the battery with no precursors.

Any ideas?

Peterzoom, did you figure this out?  I am having the exact same issue.  2000 Cabriolet.
