Test E: Single Power Window Inoperative

  1. Check Window Operation

    Turn ignition switch to RUN position. Operate all windows from driver door master window switch. If all windows open and close properly, verify lock-out switch is not engaged and go to step 3). If all windows do not operate from driver door master window switch, go to next step.
  2. Check Driver Door Master Window Switch

    Perform driver door master window switch test. See MASTER WINDOW SWITCH  under COMPONENT TESTS. If driver door master window switch is faulty, replace driver door master window switch and retest system operation. If driver door master window switch is okay and left front window is inoperative, see TEST F: ONE-TOUCH DOWN FEATURE INOPERATIVE  test. If driver door master window switch is okay and any other window is inoperative, go to next step.
  3. Check Remote Operation

    Turn ignition off. Reconnect driver door master window switch connector. Turn ignition switch to RUN position. Press lock-out switch to ON position (located on driver door master window switch assembly). Operate all passenger windows from the individual (not master) switches. If all windows operate, advise customer of lock-out switch. If right/front window does not operate, go to next step. If either rear window does not operate, go to step 7).
  4. Check Voltage To Right Front Window Switch

    Turn ignition off. Unplug right front window switch connector C609. Turn ignition switch to RUN position. While operating right front window from driver door master window switch to UP position, check voltage between ground and right front window switch connector C609 terminal No. 7 (Green/Black wire). While operating right front window from driver door master window switch to DOWN position, check voltage between ground and right front window switch connector C609 terminal No. 9 (Light Green/Red wire). If voltages are more than 10 volts, go to next step. If either voltage reading is 10 volts or less, repair Green/Black and/or Light Green/Red wire(s). Retest system operation.
  5. Check Right Front Window Motor Circuits

    Turn ignition off. Using an ohmmeter, check resistance between right front window switch connector C609 terminals No. 6 (White wire) and 10 (Red wire). Resistance should be less than 5 ohms. Check resistance between ground and right front window switch connector C609 terminals No. 6 (White wire) and 10 (Red wire) individually. Resistances should be more than 10 k/ohms. If all resistances are as specified, replace right front window switch and retest system operation. If resistances are not as specified, go to next step.
  6. Check Right Front Window Motor Operation

    Perform power window motor test. See POWER WINDOW MOTOR  under COMPONENT TESTS. If right front power window motor is faulty, replace right front power window motor. If right front power window motor is okay, repair circuit(s) between right front window switch and right front power window motor. Retest system operation.
  7. Check Rear Window Switch

    Perform single switch test. See SINGLE SWITCH  under COMPONENT TESTS. If rear window switch is faulty, replace rear window switch and retest system operation. If rear window switch is okay, go to next step.
  8. Check Voltage To Rear Window Switch

    Turn ignition off. Unplug appropriate rear window switch connector. Turn ignition switch to RUN position. While operating appropriate rear window from driver door master window switch to UP position, check voltage between ground and appropriate rear window switch connector terminal No. 2 (Blue/White wire). While operating appropriate rear window from driver door master window switch to DOWN position, check voltage between ground and rear window switch connector terminal No. 4 (Yellow/Green wire). If voltages are more than 10 volts, go to next step. If either voltage reading is 10 volts or less, repair Blue/White and/or Yellow/Green wire(s). Retest system operation.
  9. Check Rear Window Motor Operation

    Perform power window motor test. See POWER WINDOW MOTOR  under COMPONENT TESTS. If rear power window motor is faulty, replace rear power window motor and retest system operation. If rear power window motor is okay, repair Red and/or Green wire(s) between rear power window switch and rear power window motor. Retest system operation.
