How do you lower your windows with the remote. I have a ‘17 Lariat with an Ultimate Package.

I have no idea but every time my 1 yr old plays with the fob I go outside to find the windows down so it must be doable!

If I'm not mistaken I believe with vehicle off and locked you just press and hold the unlock button on keyfob. Only works on front drivers/pass window tho if I remember correct. Tried it a few months ago when someone mentioned how to do it never seen much need to use tho so haven't since.

Unlock and then unlock again and hold.

It is the reverse to close them all - lock and then lock and hold.

I thought global window close was disabled from factory and had to be enabled?

They will go down without forescan, you will need forescan if you wish to be able to make them go back up via remote.

Thanks guys. This is perfect for these Texas 100+ degree days. Any extra way to get the hot air out before I get in makes a huge difference.

My 17 Platinum will go down, but as stated above will not go up. However My Wife's 18 Expedition goes up and down. I didn't know this was an option until I read this thread and wandered outside to have a Looksie.

Very odd that you can roll them down via the remote but not up.

Global windows down is ENABLE by default
Global windows UP is DISABLED from the factory

You need (free) ForScan software (runs on windows) and a bluetooth OBDII dongle to write changed to the truck to enable things like global windows UP.

To learn more about FORSCAN software go to this THREAD
To see what things are possible (changes) with the software look at this spreadsheet

All of this is DIY and pretty easy (looks intimidating at 1st but its not.
There is a forum members that are willing to help - check some of these "forscan for hire threads"

Below is the forscan information to enable global windows up.
