So i had the Drivers side door handle on my 2015 P85d Replaced 3 months ago and today problems. So it originally would not extend, They replaced it with the newest model. All was well but today it will extend but do nothing when you pull on it. ARGGGG.
So i took the door panel off to inspect what was going on. Thinking a wire on a micro switch came loose but no. This is the newest style with no micro switches, It has a magnetic angle sensor that measure the travel and if you are pulling or pushing on it.
It seems what happened when i washed the car the water pressure around the door handle Forced the rubber inner cover off and it got chewed up in the gear that extends the door handle. It was wet with the rubber cover just hanging loose and a big rip where it got caught in the gear. This seems to have messed up the calibration from my best guess.
It seems the calibration is in the computer and somehow got messed up now it tries to over extend makes a whining noise and retracts slightly, But it will not move all the way in. It sits proud of the body by a 1/4 inch.
Does anyone know if i can calibrate it myself, Software recommendations?
