Power Window Master Switch Input Test

Power Window Master Switch Input Test

NOTE: The power window control unit is built into the power window master switch, and it only controls the driver's window operations.

1.Remove the power window master switch (A).

2.Disconnect the 20P connector (B) from the master switch.

 

3.Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.

  • If the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
  • If the terminals look OK, make the following input tests at the connector.
    • If a test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, go to 4.

4.With the connector still disconnected, make these input tests at the connector.

  • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
  • If all the input tests prove OK, go to 5.

It should run (the driver's window moves down). 
  • Faulty driver's window motor
  • An open in the wire
 
7[3] RED/BLK 
1[9] BLU/RED Connect the No. 2 and No. 3[No. 7] terminals, and the No. 1[No. 9] and No. 8[No. 2]terminals, and turn the ignition switch ON (II). Check for front passenger's window motor operation:
It should run (the front passenger's window moves down). 
  • Faulty front passenger's window motor
  • Faulty front passenger's window switch
  • An open in the wire
 
3[7] BLU/WHT 
19 BRN/WHT Connect the No. 18 and No. 17 terminals, and the No. 19 and No. 8[No. 2] terminals, and turn the ignition switch ON (II). Check for left rear window motor operation:
It should run (the left rear window moves down). 
  • Faulty left rear window motor
  • Faulty left rear window switch
  • An open in the wire
 
17 BRN 
12 BLU/ORN Connect the No. 11 and No. 10 terminals, and the No. 12 and No. 8[No. 2]terminals, and turn the ignition switch ON (II). Check for right rear window motor operation:
It should run (the right rear window moves down). 
  • Faulty right rear window motor
  • Faulty right rear window switch
  • An open in the wire
 
10 BRN/YEL 


5.Reconnect the 20P connector to the switch, and perform the following input tests.

  • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
  • If all the input tests prove OK, the control unit must be faulty; replace the power window master switch.
