Recalibrations after Battery disconnect

[Northcountry]

I found that the radio, seats need resetting after a battery disconnect.. I also found that the auto-up feature of the windows, and most disturbingly, the ESP system have to be recalibrated. Are there any other secret recalibrations we need to do? THANKS DCM for putting it in the owners manual.

I had my battery disconnected and I found that the widnow one touch up and down needs to be reset. What you need to do to fix it is roll the windows all the way down and then use the one touch up. The windows should roll up with the one touch. Hope this helps

After the battery is replaced, you also have to go to the dealre to get the MDS turned back on. BTW, for the "auto up" feature, put the window all the way UP, and hold the switch there 'til you hear the window "twitch". That will restore the auto-up.

Does anyone know how to get the MDS turned back on without a trip to the dealer?

This is all that is in the Service Manual.

STANDARD PROCEDURE
BATTERY RECONNECTION
NOTE: This reconnection procedure is to be performed anytime the battery has been disconnected.

CAUTION: Once the battery has been connected, review and perform the following information as applicable.

AUTO UP FRONT WINDOW
If the vehicle is equipped with the auto-up front window feature, once the battery is reconnected the door module needs to be calibrated. The door module requires calibration anytime the battery or door module has been disconnected for any length of time. To calibrate, perform the following:

1. Turn the Ignition to the Run position.
2. Regardless of current window position, move the driver side front window upward until the window stalls in the full up position. Allow the window motor to stall for at least 2 seconds before releasing the switch.
3. Move the driver side front window downward until the window stalls in the full down position. Allow the window motor to stall for at least 2 seconds before releasing the switch.
4. Move the driver side front window upward until the window stalls in the full up position. Allow the window motor to stall for at least 2 second before releasing the switch.
5. Repeat steps 2, 3 and 4 for the passenger side front window.
6. Verify the windows are properly calibrated by operating the express down and up features on the windows.
Repeat this procedure if the calibration failed. If unable to properly calibrate after the second attempt, check the Driver’s Door Module (DDM) and Passenger’s Door Module (PDM) for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and
correct as required.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM (ESP)
If the vehicle is equipped with ESP, once the battery is reconnected, the Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) needs to be calibrated. The SAS requires calibration anytime the battery or an ABS (ESP) component has been disconnected for any length of time. If the SAS is not calibrated following battery reconnection, the ESP/BAS indicator lamp is illuminated following 5 ignition cycles indicating the need for calibration.

To calibrate, perform the following:
1. Start the engine.
2. Center the steering wheel.
3. Turn the steering wheel all the way to the left until the internal stop in the steering gear is met, then turn the wheel all the way to the right until the opposite internal stop in the steering gear is met.
4. Center the steering wheel.
5. Stop the engine.
