Despite my wife's protest that I would be a frozen Ed-cicle, I just went outside and tried this, but no luck. Maybe because it still freezing outside and my garage is not heated. I HOPE the carrier isn't broken. I've been through a rough December which included replacing the PS outside mirror twice, and a rear PDC sensor that turned out to be a bad/corroded connector for which getting the part took weeks, and a few other surprises....

Thanks for the link Stephen !
