Venue power windows dead after battery change

My 2023 Hyundai Venue diesel is throwing a hissy fit. Just clocked 166586 km and now all the power windows are dead. This started after the battery died and I replaced it. Now I've got this error saying the window regulator initialization failed. Has anyone seen this before? I've checked the fuses, even tried disconnecting the battery again hoping for a reset, but nothing!

Summary of the thread

After replacing the battery in a 2023 Hyundai Venue diesel, all power windows stopped functioning, and an error message indicated a "window regulator initialization failed." The issue persisted despite checking fuses and attempting a battery reset. A similar problem was resolved by taking the vehicle to a workshop, suggesting that professional assistance may be necessary to address the electronic malfunction.

That's a weird one, but I think I had something similar on my Venue too. Though I never changed the battery myself. Same symptoms though – windows completely unresponsive and some kind of error code. Did you check the window switches themselves? I remember someone mentioning they can be a bit temperamental.

Yeah, I did check the switches, seemed okay. I've even got a multimeter and checked if the power is reaching the window motor on the driver's side – nada! Was your error message specifically related to "window regulator initialization," or something else?

You know what, I think it WAS the regulator initialization. I recall that term now. I messed with it for an evening, and no success. Eventually I gave up and took it to a local workshop. They sorted it fairly quickly. I'd advise you doing the same, unfortunately. Car electronics, you know...

Blast! That's what I was afraid of. Well, thanks for the confirmation; saves me from chasing ghosts all weekend. Workshop it is! For those interested in the final price, it came down to 290€.
