Question Power window switch problem

I replaced the battery in my 2016 Camry yesterday and today discovered that the switch on the driver's side door that controls the front passenger window no longer works. The switch on the front passenger door works and the window goes up and down fine. All other window switches and the door locks are working fine. Any idea what might be wrong with this one switch and how to repair it?

Most likely nothing wrong. The window operation needs to be reset after the battery was disconnected. Window operation is via a computer and NOT direct hard wiring from the switch to motor..

The internet has videos and threads on "resetting windows 2016 Camry".

If needing to replace the battery in the future, use a battery saver that keeps the cars electronics powered during battery change.

it's still very helpful for an old guy that seems to forget a lot more than I should for a retired mechanic.
