Default windows

All of my cars have power windows. All have one touch and the window goes all the way down. Three of the vehicles have one touch to go back up, but the Jeep doesn't. Is there a setting to make it go to one touch to roll up? It's not that big of a deal, but sometimes you don't feel like holding the button down.

Man.... I felt lucky to have power ANYTHING in my doors! My 05 TJ I was lucky it had power steering! :p


So far no way to rig it to auto up. I'm not sure if there is a separate computer control or if it is controlled on the motor itself in the JK.

I've been thinking about this also. My grandfather has an '11 Town and Country with one touch up and down windows. So Chrysler has the technology! As far as implementing it in the jeep, I have done zero research. Who knows if it's the switch, a controller, the regulator or what. You can also go the aftermarket route with Autoloc, but I've heard mixed reviews of their products. I believe manufacturers do auto-down-only in the cases where they're too cheap to make sure the window motor can tell when a small child or larger idiot puts his head in the path of the closing window.

That tire on the back just doesn't change itself either:( Take it back and go buy a Cadillac... You sound like to flashy/fancy of a guy to be driving a jeep:p or like said above just hold that magical button for 5 more seconds :p

Lame all of you are flaming him.... You know if there was a way to mod it that didn't cost much everyone on here would be jumping on doing it. If there was a flash or something to do it I would.

I've had cars with 1 touch up and when you're eating a donut, shouldering a cell phone and pulling away from a toll booth with a manual transmission, it is a wonderful feature.

All the cars I have been in that have the 1 touch up have a pinch protection built into the window system, which might cost a lot preventing 1 touch up from being cheap feature for chrysler to include.
