If not already tried, do what I do when my computer does strange things. Shut it off, unplug from wall (disconnect ground wire of battery), wait 1 minute, and reboot (connect ground wire back to battery). Worth a try.

Sounds like Twilight sentinel is on. Go into the DIC and check and turn it off if it is.

I assure you the code on any module didn't change itself while the battery was disconnected.

update 300$ rookie mistake

So I know better than this my stupidity,but in my nervous anticipation to get my motor cranked up,and check for leaks.I had the battery hooked up before I even realized the damage had been done.I accidently hooked the positive terminal up first then the ground.Never Never do this I was lucky just the headlamp control module kind of burnt up. The module still would activate the motors to go up although not down.I had to take the car to a automotive electrical tech.
