Default Window? Computer? WTF!? HELP PLEASE!

Hello everybody.. Its been a long time since I have been on here.. But anyways.. nothing new to report except for my battery keeps draining... I checked my alternators output.. its putting out 14.5v. The battery was kind of low 11.8v or so.. I figured that its because it has kind of been run down recently.. Anyways.. While I was playing around with the truck I rolled the window down and disconnected the battery. I cleaned the terminals off, the positive was a little corroded.. anyways.. go to start the truck up and nada,, just clicks.. So i jump her and she fires right up no problem. turn it off to plug it up to the battery tender and realized that the window was down.. I go to roll it up and all i get is a set of clicks.. 2 clicks.. like the window thinks its already up or something.. AHH!!! I have it plugged in right now hopefully I can get the truck started and window up so I can re-park it (its in front of 2 garages)


If you know what could fix either please let me know.. its kind of frustrating.

THANKS!!!

okay... the window thing is taken care of... I just held the window down switch for like 10-15 seconds.. then hit the up switch and it rolled up...

now If I could just keep the damn thing charged..

I might roll through and get the battery load tested on thursday...

If ur showing 11.8v then I would suspect something is constantly putting a load. Like its stuck on.
