No idea what this is, hope you get it sorted soon.

Could you post a photo of the tool and its location?

When ignition on it moves apx 1 cm back and forth before it stops, this happens if it is on tilt,half open, fully open...

Is there anyway to calibrate/reset the sensors like on the windows?
It could be the pinch protection playing up maybe.
