Movano Power Window Reset

My 2011 Renault Movano diesel has power window issues after a battery replacement. The windows don't respond, and a diagnostic tool shows a window regulator initialization error. I've checked the fuses. Any advice?

That sounds like a classic Movano thing after a battery swap! The window regulators sometimes forget their settings and need re-initialization. The error memory confirms it. You've done the fuse check, which is good. Have you tried any reset procedures? There's usually some magic combo of holding the window switch up or down for a certain amount of time. Does the central locking still work fine?

I'm unfamiliar with the specific reset method for the Movano. Could you elaborate on the 'magic combo'? I don't want to cause further issues. The central locking system is functioning normally.

Central locking is fine – that rules out some broader electrical gremlins. The reset is usually something like: ignition on, hold the window switch fully DOWN for 10 seconds after it's already at the bottom, then hold it fully UP for 10 seconds after it's at the top. Repeat a couple of times. You need to do it on each window. Honestly though, if that doesn’t work and you've got the error code already, it probably needs proper diagnostics. Best bet is a garage with the right Renault software to force the re-initialization. Those window regulators are a pain!

Following your recommendations, I attempted the reset procedure multiple times on each window, but the issue persisted. I brought the vehicle to a trusted workshop. The window regulators required professional re-initialization using specialized Renault software. The total repair cost was 290€.
