I hope it never works again and all of your speakers crap out. ;-)

Default Might have been the switch. My ESP switch was seriously intermittent, but they...

... cleaned the contacts and used <A HREF="http://www.google.com/search?q=stabilant+enhancer+22+contact&btnG=Google +Search&hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&safe=off&client=googlet">Stabilant 22 contact enhancer</A> on the connections of the switch. Cleared it right up. I've used similar products on audio systems with good results. There is even a similar product made for model train tracks!

Default No problems yet, even in the cold Minnesota winter. I haven't used it much in the cold, need all the

sun we can get in the winter.

I may be late in posting, but I need to vent a little. The rear sunshade in my 2001 4.2 has been a consistent problem from day one. It has been to the dealer fifteen (yes, 15) times for this problem. They have replaced the switch, shade itself, motor, arms, etc.--several times each. It always stops working again with 2 or 3 days. The dealer has had factory reps look at it as well, but in a little over two years they have never been able to actually fix it.

Has anyone else had similar problems?
