Misbehaving windows

[Ian James]

Hi everyone.  First post.  The electric windows on my 2003 Avensis have started to misbehave.  The driver's side window will 'bounce' back down after fully closing, as if it's met an obstruction.  If I hold the button up for a couple of seconds after it's reached the top (rather than using the auto-close feature), it stays up.  Now the passenger front window is doing the same thing.  I've read that it needs recalibrating to understand where the stop point is and I'm trying to find the location and number of the fuse I can remove to clear the memory of the current position because I've tried the technique of holding it in the fully-open and fully-closed positions for five seconds and that hasn't cured the problem.  I can't seem to find anything which tells me which fuse the electric windows use.  Can anyone tell me?

Does the passenger window work correctly when using the passenger door switch? If so the problem my be due to a fault on the driver's switch unit itself. These are readily available as salvage parts on eBay.

Thanks gazza.  Feel a bit dim for not having eliminated a possible cause by doing just that....I'll check it tonight.

No.

Update: thanks for people's input, particularly to gazza1286 because having tested the passenger window button, I have isolated the problem to the driver's side switch panel.
