Default Problem Solved

Checked it again this morning, still didn't work, drove to work, started looking for the correct fuse, couldn't find anything that said "window power" or anything close on the cover. Broke out the owner's manual, showed a Left Door Power fuse, and under the power window entry mentioned that the power seat is protected by a circuit breaker (don't know why that was under the power window section).

So checked the fuse (it was fine) pulled and reset the CB and guess what? window worked again! Reinstalled the valet module, and reprogramed it, works fine!

Who knows what affected what?, but at least it's working now! Great mod, and thanks for all the help.

I highly reccomend this product for convertible owners, especially. I picked one up in late summer and it rocks. I was always frustrated that you would have to get back into the car after putting the top up to roll the windows up, unless you remembered to reach behind you and open the tonneau before rolling them up and turning the car off. With this little gadget, that is no longer a concern. Plus it is a nice wow feature to control your windows by remote. I have had several people comment on them and more than one Corvette owner ask me how to enable this on their car. This would make a great X-Mas gift.

Hey all you vert owners - are you saying that after you put up the top you don't get back in anyway to actually LATCH it?

Dang...day late and dollar short! Any way I can receive an email on next bundle opportunity that includes the Valet?

By the way, I asked the local "stealership" about this option and they looked at me like I fell on my head and needed help. They had no idea such a mod existed! Seemed like a reasonable question to me as I was ordering a new remote entry fob. Duh!
