The washer works and I can hear the solenoid clicking when I hit the switch. I removed the panels and unpluged it and cleaned the contacts (knowing full well that has never resolved any electrical issue in my life, but I always try it anyway hoping for that one day it actualy yeilds some miricale result) put everything back together and the same. Door closed, no operation when cold, drive it into garage and after a few min it works. I did a google search and I see someone has the identical issue but with a jeep, no resolution is shown in the forum though.

I see a GM motor is around $200 where a dorman is only $100. Id hate to replace a non returnable motor for nothing.
