Nope, you need to press & hold the end of the wiper stalk for a few seconds to reset it.

#13: Re: how high can u get yours? Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Mon May 09, 2011 8:40 am ---- If its not been used for a couple of days, can shoot a good couple of feet above a head
In all seriousness, slow down in gear and it'll be a good reading
