Nice thread find Greenie. I'd heard mention of auto up before, and wondered why mine never worked. (I've got an '01 ! )

Yeah, I made sure to put that in the quote... It's an 03 drivers side only thing, so it's important that its' mentioned... Don't want to make you 01 and 02 guys crazy

So was that it ?? Just had to reset it ?? It would be nice to know for future reference...

I had a issue with my auto down on the passenger side rear view mirror, and had to disconnect the battery to reset that...

my auto down on my 01 is retarded. it will go like almost half way down then it stops...then you press it again and it goes about half that distance and stops...then again and it will finally go all the way.

weird cause it only does it sometimes.

i wonder if we could buy another auto up/down module and replace them with the passenger window button and make it auto up/down. Anyone tried that yet?

No, but that sounds like a spectacular idea.
I thought i heard some where that it's in the relay or something like that, and not just the switch?

yeah, I saw a thread on this. I beleive there is more to it than just adding a switch.

Seems pretty stupid why they wouldn't put it on both windows.

Only my passenger mirror goes Auto Down... wish I could get the drivers to go too, but it doesn't bother me enough to pay to get it fixed... it goes down fine if I am manually pushing the down button, but doesn't go down when I go in reverse... anyone else have this?

The driver side mirror isn't supposed to go down when reversing.

Ok, so the auto down feature is that your passenger mirror goes down when in Reverse? I figured that might be the case, but wasn't sure... I've been in other cars where they both go down. Just got my car not long ago. Thanks though!

that's kind of the same problem i had/have again.

i spoke too soon. the reset fixed it for a day. after posting today about it working, i went out this afternoon and it was messed up again

do you have an alarm with the window module. i do and this problem only started once i had them installed.

mine goes down fine w/ the auto, but going back up is my problem. it comes back down a couple inches by itself

i'm going to try the reset again and

i have no idea why let me know what you do/try.

Mine only does it when it's above 85 degrees and it's been parked in the sun. Never happens in the winter but malfunctions in the summer. Totally temperature related in my experience as is some quirks in the radio.
