I thought maybe an increased resistance caused by a dry/dirty lift mechanism might be fooling the system to think the window has reached the end of it's travel. The window is a bit slower than the other one. This was the case with my BMW's sunroof. A clean and lube of the track resolved the malfuction. Any tips to get the door panel off?

Okay, so appearantly it is not supposed to do that. The window clears the opening and weather stripping without it so that makes sense.

Not too sure where you are talking about. Door jamb on the body or the door? There is only a small, black plug approx 12mm in diameter about halfway down on the rear of the door. Could you clearify? Could you post a picture perhaps?

Do you think that a bad switch or connector is still a possible cause since it still locks/unlocks the doors and trunk? Do the door locks go through the convenience module or anti-theft module? Thanks!
