Default Window Valet question

If you unplug it to use a code reader do you have to re-program it?

I don't think so. I have unplugged mine and simply put it back and it works the same.

No. Once you program it to your car, its done. All you need to do is plug it back in.

Thanks.

It's not like it's a long drawn out process but I always have to dig out the instructions to change any of the settings.

I have one I bought a few months ago. One thing i noticed is everytime I use the last highest speed option it reads 92 miles an hour everytime, no matter how fast I went and reset it each time.

Mine seems to register correctly. Right now it's some where around 85 MPH.

The only problem I have is that occasionally when I triple lock to roll the windows up they come back down. I've reset them twice now and so far they're still good.
