Does anyone know which fuse to pull for the 2013 F-150? I have an STX regular cab with AVS in-channel window vents. I let them sit forever with the window up after install, and I still get pull back with auto-up. I'm willing to try, but would rather pull a fuse than have to disconnect my battery.

Thanks

I have the AVS in channel visors on my 2013 SuperCab. I did have some auto roll up problems initially, but after a looking at the hard points and the channel insert clips I figured out the problem was...

My window molding was new, and was still quite swollen, once I seen this I used a heat gun with the window up, and then proceeded to bump the window up after it was rolled down. This helped but over time with the window up the seal formed to its new shape with the visor.

I have ZERO wind leaks or any NVH of the kind. Most of the auto roll up problems will go away with the hot summer sun and the window up. If not call AVS or the manufacture and see if they have done any lip revisions to the vent.

Do you have the Revised version of the AVS's?

Yes, most likley. I bought them at Autozone shortly after I got the truck (Feb, 2013).

The one thing I noticed that sparked my attention was the channel inserts, I have never seen them before now.

I decided on stickons over the in channel's after they broke when I got them in Monday. Amazon stepped up and delivered my new ones in two days with free shipping. Just in time for a 12 hour road trip tomorrow.
