Replaced battery now window switch isn’t moving windows
Hi folks I’ve had my 2004 suburban since 2016. I recently had to replace my battery but the car sat with a completely dead battery for about two weeks. Popped the new battery in today and everything was great except now my power switch (locks/windows/mirror etc) isn’t moving the other windows down (they are up). When I go to each door, the switches work fine, windows go up and down as they should. The power mirror functions fine as well from the main switch but nothing else on the main switch seems to be working. I should note that this switch is relatively new as I replaced it about a year ago with a GM replacement and it was working fine before the new battery was put in. Is there some sort of re-learn procedure for the windows on this model year? I’ve seen videos online for this but they seem to be for 2007-up models. And the procedures didnt work for me.
Any info/advice is greatly appreciated.

so, I went out tonight to start the suburban up and the window switch now works fine. Go figure. In case anyone has this same issue, it must take some time for things to “learn” the settings, I’m not sure.
