2014 F-150 XLT Problem with auto windows
Need help! I live in South Florida where it gets extremely hot. I usually crack the front windows to allow for air flow to reduce the inside temperature throughout the day. PROBLEM - at the end of the day when I get back in and hit the window control, it won't go back up, it travels up, then goes to the half open position. I'll manually put the window down all the way, then after about five minutes, the auto mode usually will go all the way back up. However when it's raining, I really don't want the window down for five minutes. Anyone know of a solution??

I got the de-initialization/initialization procedures from my dealership and had success with it. Here's the procedure they gave me. I went with the option of removing the fuse:
De-Initialization
Note: The front window motor must be de-initialized (reset to its original factory settings) before carrying out the initialization procedure.
1. Turn the ignition ON.
2. Operate the window control switch in one-touch mode and remove power from the window motor while the window is moving by one of the following methods:
a. Disconnect the vehicle battery cable while the window is moving.
b. Remove the LH or RH front window motor fuse while the window is moving.
3. This de-initializes the window motor and reset the window motor to its original factory setting
4. Carry out the initialization procedure to turn the one-touch-up feature on
Initialization
WARNING: Keep objects and body parts clear of the glass panel when carrying out the initialization procedure. During the initialization procedure, the glass panel closes with high force and cannot detect objects In Its path. Failure to follow this instruction may result In serious personal injury.
NOTE: The front window must be in the full OPEN position for this procedure to operate correctly
NOTE: If the initialization procedure is only partially completed, the front window motor remains de-initialized and operates only in proportional up/down and one-touch¬down modes.
5. Turn the ignition ON.
6. Activate and hold the window control switch in the UP position at the second detent until the window glass stalls for 2 seconds into the glass top run and release the switch.
7. Activate and hold the window control switch in the DOWN position at the second detent until the window glass stalls for 2 seconds at the bottom of its travel and release the switch.
8. Test for correct window operation by carrying out the one-touch-up and one-touch-down features.
