Question Odd window problem on 350z roadster

Hello everyone, I recently picked up a 2005 350z roadster with a ton of small problems for a good price. One of the more odd problems is that whenever you start the car the windows go all the way down and won't go back up unless you lock it and roll them up. You also have to follow a very specific procedure to roll up the windows when you leave the car because the key must be turned, the doors must be opened so you can leave, and the door must be locked.

If you're lucky it may be something as simple as doing the window re-learn which you can find on YT. The older window motors have a button to press so you have to remove the inside door panel. Newer ones learn with the window switch.
If you're unlucky someone has cut/spliced/tampered with the stock wiring which means you'll have to chase down what was done and correct it. Gl!

I'll try that, I've seen tutorials online but haven't had time yet.
