Rear Window Malfunction
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Cadillac SRX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate S79R window switch-rear.
- Test for less than 5 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 5 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 8 and ground
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Test for 5-10V between the serial data circuit terminal 1 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the serial data circuit for a short to voltage.
- If less than the specified range, test the serial data circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Ignition OFF, connect the harness connector at the S79R window switch-rear.
- Disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate M74R window motor-rear.
- Test for less than 5 Ω between the control circuit terminal A and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the S79R window switch-rear.
- Test for less than 5 Ω between the control circuit terminal B and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the S79R window switch-rear.
- Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal A and control circuit terminal B.
- Ignition ON, command the rear window UP and DOWN using the S79R window switch-rear. The test lamp should briefly illuminate when commanding the UP and DOWN states.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate during either of the commands, test both control circuits for a short to ground. If the circuits test normal, replace the S79R window switch-rear.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the M74R window motor-rear.
