Seat Exeo power window issue

Sounds like a similar problem I had with my Exeo. Have you tried a window reset procedure? Sometimes the window controls get confused after a power interruption. Try holding the window switch down until it's fully open, then keep holding it for a few seconds. Repeat the process going up. It might do the trick.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've seen a few things about a window reset, but I'm not sure if I'm doing it correctly. When you say 'holding', do you mean even after the window is fully open or closed? And is there a specific duration I should be holding the window switch?

Yes, hold even after it's fully open or closed. A few seconds should do it, maybe 5-10. If that doesn't work, it might be something more serious with the window regulator itself, or perhaps the car electronics need a proper reset via diagnostics. Probably best to get it checked at a workshop.

The problem is now fixed. I went to a local workshop, and they said the window regulator needed re-initialization after the battery change. The car electronics are a bit sensitive, it seems. The total cost was 290€. Thanks for the help!
