Default Pass Window wont roll up and codes....

So rained like crazy in So Cal yesterday. Today my pass window rolls up only half way. Getting the following codes tonight:
P1431H
U1096H
U1061H
U1064H

I pulled the codes on Monday, so these are recent. Did not have any codes at all then.

Battery is about a year old. No work done to the car, only oil change 2 months ago. And yes the window does get a lot of "exercise".

Any ideas????
Tried the screwdriver method on the little screw behind the passenger handle......................didn't help.
THANKS!

With the exception of the 1431 code the others possibly have more than one system they report from such as the LDCM or RDCM. Get to the accordian tube in the doorjam area of the passenger door and give it a good shake while trying to touch the up button. If the window goes up, there's a connector inside of the tube with the serial interface wire. Its pin/socket is probably lose. Assuming the window does goes down, but only comes up half-way, this means the motor and relay are apparently working....unless....the relay contacts heat up and let go or the window is jamming up on something? Is the window mechanism making any weird noise?

Yes there is noise when it starts to roll up, almost like scratching or something is impeding its progress up. I will try shaking the prt you suggested this am and see what happens.
Thanks...

If its screeching going up, your regulator assembly is done. Buy a new one. There are some cheap ones out there that are supposed replacements but I've not seen or used on yet. El Segundo...wish I was there to help as I retired from there two years ago.

Yup its the regulator. I tried it again this afternoon and with its dying breath it rolled the window to the top......well at least I dont have to drive with the heater on in the morning! Gives me a little time too look for another one also.
Thanks for all the help. Yeah gotta love EL Segundo. Very few people know it, even people who live in LA.
