I need to do some work inside my doors and noticed that the service manuals states I need to do a power window control unit reset after I am done. The manual says I need to use the Honda Diagnostic System to do this. I know there are some ways to pull trouble codes without the tool, is there any way to do this myself or should I just have the dealer do the reset? Is the reset necessary?
Thanks
 
I have an '07 and had to do no such thing. Supposedly i needed to "restore the drivers auto window function" but it worked fine when I reconnected the battery. Are you working from a Honda service manual?

Thanks for the info. Yes I am working for a service manual. I wonder if they just put that in there so you will have to go to the dealer. 03LXV6 have you done this procedure before?
 
Hope this helps (copied from the 08 manual, but still I think the same mechanism) :

Do each bullet in step 4 within 5 seconds of each other. The front passenger's power window must be reset from the front passenger's power window switch.

1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

2. Move the power window all the way down by using the power window DOWN switch.

3. Open the driver's door.

4. Do the following three times before going to step 5:
 * Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
 * Push and hold the power window DOWN switch.
 * Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
 * Release the power window DOWN switch.

5. Confirm that AUTO UP no longer works. If AUTO UP still works, go back to step 1.

6. Move the power window all the way down using the power window DOWN switch.

7. Pull up and hold the power window UP switch until the power window is all the way up, then continue to hold the switch for 1 second.

8. Confirm that the power window control unit is reset by using the power window AUTO UP and AUTO DOWN function.

If the power window still does not work in AUTO, repeat the procedure several times, paying close attention to the 5 second time limit between steps.
