There is a new window switch available to fix the passenger auto up/down issue - Page 3 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I'm at the Toyota dealership right now and the service tech said that's the wrong part number. Did I miss something about this being brz only
Edit shit. Is there a different number for the frs? Cuz I have the shit in my frs as well and the techs here are dumb :-(

The correct Toyota part number is SU003-04628 according to the part I just ordered for myself at work.

I wish they made this a recall instead of the TSB. I rarely use my windows so by the time this problem arises I might be out of warranty

As long as you can duplicate it I'd go ahead and get it fixed. Recalls are significantly more costly than TSBs which is why that won't ever happen.

Here's the actual TSB.

I just got mine replaced and so far it seems to be working consistently.

Jealous! I tried multiple times to get the dealer to fix this and they told me they could not duplicate it. Funny I can get it to do it every time. I'm done with the the dealers here.

I had a nasty argument with Subaru Corp trying to get a dealer 200 miles away to do the work in two days. Needed a few other TSB issues resolved like GPS, rear taillights etc.

Told them I only had those two days to get this done and it would be over a year before I could get the car back to a city with a Subaru dealer. It was the truth. And it worked.

Actually I think the dealer may have broken the rules by ordering my parts ahead of them "verifying" the issues. But I put enough pressure on them and hounded Corporate enough I guess. Also complained about the crappy HU, not sure that went anywhere though.

They ended up only taking about 4 hours to do all the work as well!

Just got my switch changed at toyota (or atleast they said they changed it) and same problem

They told me that this is a known problem and they should be releasing a reflash...

A reflash, haha. Ask them to show you the old switch if you don't trust them. A reflash will definitely not fix it. The logic is not in the ECU or anything that is "flashable".

Did the paperwork they gave you show the new part number? If they did it right it should, assuming they didn't just throw out the new switch and take their warranty money and run.

Yeah I've never heard of anything like that before. He said he had one guy come in that had his pass window going up and down randomly, even with the car off. He said he came out one morning and the pass window was down. Im guessing the real story was that the auto up didnt work and he thought it did so when he came back out the pass window was still down. Thats def happened to me before I realized there was a problem.

You know what I honestly didnt really look at the paper work because I was pretty annoyed. I also asked them to program the auto off feat for the headlights to 30 secs instead of the full 20 mins that it comes with from factory and they told me they were going to do it, it was on the work order and they didnt do it. So when I decide to go back I'll have them do it for me right on the spot since it only takes a min or so.

When I get off of work Ill check the paperwork and see what it says. I also am probably going to pop off the door panel myself and see if the switch has the new part #.
