Hey guys I've been getting this malfunction messages for the last 6 months. On different windows, and it causes the window to not go all the way up at one time. I've taken it to the dealer 5 times already for this, and is fine at first but it always comes back. I have it now as we speak, but I dont wanna have to take it to the dealer again so the same problem will come back shortly after.

Has anyone dealt with this before? What can I tell the dealer to look for? Do I need to replace my window motors?

I'm still under both warranties. But the service ends this November.

if you tried that trap reset multiple times (just to make sure you did it right, sometimes it's not exactly 17 seconds) and it still doesn't work...I would guess it's off to the dealer..

BTW: your sig is too small
