Hello All:

I have been putting off posting on this subject till I felt good about the "Newest" New part
The facts are this:
The auto down uses a pulser.
The pulser stops working.
The window regulator manufacturer changed the pulser.
The first new regulator worked for a while then the same situation.
It is an intermittent situation.
It is a heat related situation.
It is not a water situation.
It goes down far enough to not bother the operation of the roof.
The New, new part is here and I like the design.

There are a lot of parts in the warehouses and there are more on the way.

The Service Bulletin 01-008 has been updated online and your dealer will be able to get the new part number.

The cars built after (03 model year): JHMAP114*3T002606 already have the new regulator.

The regulator has been in my 02 car since early February and works fine.


HTH,
Woodwork

Thanks Woodwork. Do you have to have the problem before you can request the TSB work from your dealer? I'm just not positive how the TSB process works. When the sparkplug TSB finally got issued, it was accompanied with a recall...

Thanks.

Great info, Woodwork. Thanks.
I assume that, "If it isn't broke, don't fix it." Mine car is an early '01 but still works without problems, and my Honda Care warranty has 4 1/2 years to run so I'm not pushed by time. Others with an '00 or '01 might be.

Thanks Woodwork for your very timely information. I tried the "fix" and it doesn't work. I had mine replaced last fall and it just now failed again.

Ok, so all I do is give my dealer that TSB number and they will automatically know about the updated part? Do I need to confirm anything else with them?
