Anti-Pinch on express-up driver's side window reset?

Fellow owners/enthusiasts,

 

I have an issue with the express-up on my driver's side window on my 2014 Silverado. When I use this express-up feature (pull the window button all the way up), the window rolls all the way up and about 1 second later will "crack" to about 1.5" from being closed.

 

Is there a way to fix this? Yes, I know there is a "reset method" for when battery has been disconnected. I read that in the owner's manual. I have tried this multiple times and it doesn't change anything. I've also ran my finger in the window seal to see if anything foreign is in that slot - there was nothing.

 

I want to know if anyone else has noticed this/fixed this?

 

 

Thanks!

I noticed this when I installed a set of egr window visors. What I did was I closed the windows without using the auto up (don't pull up all the way on the switch) once the window is closed u have to leave the truck off for about 72 hrs so the truck can relearn the new pressure needed to close the window fully.

Still under warranty? Take it to the dealer. There is a relearn procedure using GDS. (scan tool)

Yes, I guess I'll have it done when I take it for an oil change.

Update: I took it to the dealership Saturday for the first oil-change and told them about it. They reprogrammed it and it now works like a charm.

So I took my 2017 Silverado to dealer and told them I KNOW the switch is faulty so please change it. They treated me in the typical She’s a Woman way,didn’t change switch ,said it was my AVS rainguards and window still doing same thing. Gonna call GM and complain-again!! BTW-I’m a mechanic with painted fingernails !

There is a reset procedure that the Techs actually get a copy of it if they install window vents as a GM accessory.  It goes something like this:

 

  1. Open window the whole way.
  2. Close window.  As it reaches the end keep holding up on the switch for 3-5 seconds.
  3. Open window.  As it reaches the end keep holding down on the switch for 3-5 seconds.
  4. Close window.  As it reaches the end keep holding up on the switch for 10-20 seconds.
  5. If possible leave the vehicle sit in the sun with the windows up for 48-72 hours for the vent visors to "settle in" around the window.

      Missing thrust bearing? And oil selection

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I find it amusing the OP doesn’t realize this threads heading includes several engines. He should have posted in the off topic section if he wanted a more narrow focus. I really appreciate and find amusing that he actually pointed out one of my many vehicles. The Odyssey. That happens to use 0-20 oil. I love pushing his buttons.

      Maybe, but it seems he is the only one that has backed up data to prove what he is stating. I think he is doing this more because he enjoys it and wants to get the information out to us. He's got the knowledge and access to the proper equipment and having the funds doesn't hurt.  I would love to do what he is doing and would do it if and when I hit the Powerball.  I'm not a Tribologist by any means but love to learn what I can.   I would bet there would be doubting people out there if a completely independent lab with high quality work and highly respected in the automotive industry, put out information like this.  The world can't be pleased, one just has to take the information that they are given, do more of their own research to find actual lab data to back up what they are trying to figure/find out.  Most don't bother, they just want to believe what they first see.     I don't have the minimax but my 6.2 in my 2019 Silverado with 64k miles shows excellent UOA results with 0w-20 and for my own purposes 5w-20.  Since not much of a change using 5w. I liked the data sheet information on the SS 5w-20 and figured I would give it a try.  Still the same viscosity at 100℃.   In the end we all just do what makes us happy, life is too short to get upset over trivial social media.   On a side note, I do feel GM has dropped the ball and just cares about the bottom dollar and not quality anymore.  "Like a Rock" has been long gone.  Seems "Built Ford Tough" has as well.

      2026 sierra bad brake controller

      By flattop · Posted

      Hello, my 3 month old Sierra Elevation wont recognize a trailer with electric brakes? All the lights work correctly, but no power to the brakes?   This is the factory installed brake controller. If you manually push the knob, the display shows the power % but does not light up like my 2022 silverado.   I have an appointment with the dealer, but was checking to see if anyone else has seen this issue.    Thanks,

      Post your latest oil change.

      Been using SS 0w-20 from new, but wanted to change to the 5w-20 because I liked the data on the data sheet, to me it seems like a little better product. But as you can see, not much difference. This is also with running a mix of 10 gallons E85 to a tank topped with 93. It isn't a flex fuel vehicle so any higher I get a CEL for running lean on both banks. Yes my mileage takes a hit. Instead of 20 mpg I normally get on trips I get 17mpg. This is also using EaO17 filter.  What is amazing is I have the AMSOIL cone filter on it since I have the GM Performance intake installed and that air filter has 44k miles on it.  I just take it out and shop vac it off once a year.  I use the upholstery tool on my shop vac.  Works well.
