Will it go down if you just press the switch lightly, but not when you press the auto button? If so, it migjt be a faulty switch.

If it doesn't work at all, you could check Fuse #27 in the fuse box next to your left leg (when you are sitting in the car).

Did you happen to unplug the battery by any chance?

Page 99 in the 2004 owner's manual (nearby for later models):

If your vehice's battery is disconnected or goes dead, or a front window fuse is removed, the AUTO function could be disabled. If the AUTO function is disabled, do the following:

1. Start the engine. Push down on the front window switch until the window is fully open.

2. Pull back on the front window switch to close the window completely, then hold the switch for a second or two more.

If the power windows do not operate properly after resetting, have your vehicle checked by an Acura dealer.

Eeeeek ! Midas working on a 3GTL ? I dunno, something just feels wrong about that.

Anyway it's great news that you caught that fix from Ron. I guess I was lucky mine didn't do that after I disconnected my battery recently. I never would have figured it needed to be reset in a million years.

Well, The only reason why I went there was because my buddy works there and I got it done for free...Otherwise the dealer does everthing.
