If you search the warranty section of the board you will find it. Goes back to last December or January if I recall.
You are pulling a single wire from the door latch and the window will stay up all the time. Downside is that you don't get an interior light when you open the door because the car does not know the door is open. That is a pain, but not as much as a car full of snow like I had.
Rumours are that a new switch has been introduced and come next winter I will tell the dealer that I am still having the issue and hope the part is more than vapourware.
found the disable "HOW TO"

I can see where the logic would leave the window up if it refused to move down, but to have it stay down after it was already down? I miss the logic. Not like it was frozen in place or it would not have come down in the first place.
Cant say that me and the Remon (wifes nickname for the car) are looking forward to winter again.
As an aside, since we are in winterizing mode and all.
While I do not wash the car, I do make a point of taking it to Krown for the oil based undercoat every year. Proof of its effectiveness can be seen by the band of oil that creeps out of all the cars seams and up the panels; the doors and trunk panel have a 2-3" band of rust protector oil around the perimeter. So, while kind of messy, stuff seems to work as advertized.
