Do they have protective thermisters internally? If they do, are they subject to the same degradation that the OEM units are? If they aren't, why not?

If they have no thermisters, what protection is afforded to the actuator motors in the case of a stuck actuator switch?

HI Pop,

Our units are manufactured just like the original part.They do come with a 1 year warranty.We sell quite a few of these and returns are less then 1% (and that's usually due to the wrong part being ordered).

It's a great part and it's manufactured well.We go through great lengths to weed out any inferior products.

Tony

OK, that's sales talk.

Can you be technical? How about the thermisters?

We prefer details and photos on this forum.

The photos that we have on the website is what I have available to me from the manufacturer along with the description.

I do not have an internal diagram of this part,that's why I couldn't post them up. It doesn't mean that I'm not knowledgeable about the product this is the information that I have to work with. The manufacturer doesn't give us specifics about the internal pieces on this particular part.

Best Regards,

Tony

Thanks, Tony, for the quick response.

I was hoping to find that your product was electrically and mechanically superior. At any rate, even if it's just the equivalent quality of OEM, yours are less costly, and would be a better buy.

Without knowing more specifics, it's impossible to weigh the differences.

Again, thanks.

Edit:
Must be a system error, as I KNOW I only hit the "go button" once, and got this double post.
