Possible fix for for the auto-rolldown problem
I'm a little confused... What exactly is the problem that is being fixed with this thread? Is it with the auto roll-down of the driver's side window? Or the auto roll-down of the soft top? Or... I don't know, I'm really confused here.
ok..well after going to like 3 dealerships..NOT a single parts department idiot knew wat i was talking about when trying to get the piece to make the passenger button auto-down...anyone have an exact part number so i can shove it in their face next time please?..(and how difficult is it to install....)

Someone could have just stumbled across this or got it from a supplier or from prior knowledge. Honda doesn't manufacture the regulator and parts supplier does. If Honda gave them the specs and they produced it, they could have added this reset feature into and never told Honda. This same regulator could be used on other brands of cars.
Another scenario is that Honda wanted to make sure that it got fixed the first time. Sometimes just resetting something only cures it for a little bit and then it comes back. Replacing can minimize the chance of reoccurrence.
Honda may update the TSB or they may not. The dealer would not do this procedure and claim to Honda they replaced the regulator. If caught, they are really up the creek. Honda could sue them for damages, revoke their dealership license, restrict popular models from them or go over all of their service records with a fine tooth comb. They could do all some or none of those. The dealer would hate any of those options.
