NO. 1 DRIVER-SIDE FRONT WINDOW DOES NOT GO UP AND DOWN IN AUTOMATIC MODE


BME090358000204

1

Driver-side front window does not go up and down in automatic mode

POSSIBLE CAUSE

• Open circuit or short to B+ circuit in limit switch signal, ground signal from wiring harness (between the power window main switch and the driver-side front power window motor), inner control panel, or inner motor
• Open circuit or short to B+/ground circuit in pulse generator signal from wiring harness (between the power window main switch and the driver-side front power window motor), inner control panel, or inner motor

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
INSPECT WHETHER POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCH ENTER FAIL-SAFE MODE OR NOT
• Did the driver-side front window go up or down in automatic mode?
Yes
Recheck malfunction symptoms.
No
Go to the next step. (Power window main switch may enter fail-safe mode.)
2*
VERIFY WHETHER MALFUNCTION IS IN WIRING HARNESS (BETWEEN POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCH AND DRIVER-SIDE FRONT POWER WINDOW MOTOR) OR ELSEWHERE
• Test the voltage at the power window main switch terminal 2B (limit switch signal).
• Is the voltage approximately 5 V when the driver-side front window is closed completely and 0 V when it is opened halfway?
Yes
Go to Step 6.
No
Go to the next step.
3*
VERIFY WHETHER MALFUNCTION IS IN DRIVER-SIDE FRONT POWER WINDOW MOTOR OR ELSEWHERE
• Turn the ignition switch to LOCK position.
• Disconnect the driver-side front power window motor.
• Turn the ignition switch to ON position.
• Connect circuit tester negative probe to driver-side front power window motor connector terminal B, because it will be possible to inspect motor connector terminal 2C (ground signal) line as well.
• Measure the voltage at driver-side front power window motor terminal F (limit switch signal).
• Is the voltage approximately 5 V?
Yes
Replace the driver-side front power window motor (open circuit or short to B+ in motor), then go to Step 11.
No
Go to the next step.
4*
INSPECT WIRING HARNESS BETWEEN POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCH AND DRIVER-SIDE FRONT POWER WINDOW MOTOR FOR CONTINUITY
• Turn the ignition switch to LOCK position.
• Disconnect the power window main switch connector.
• Is there continuity between the following power window main switch connector terminals and driver-side front power window motor terminals?
- 2B-F (limit switch signal)
- 2C-B (ground signal)
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair the wiring harness between the power window main switch and the driver-side front power window motor, then go to Step 11.
5*
VERIFY WHETHER MALFUNCTION IS IN WIRING HARNESS (BETWEEN POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCH AND DRIVER-SIDE FRONT POWER WINDOW MOTOR) OR POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCH
• Turn the ignition switch to ON position.
• Measure the voltage at the following power window main switch terminals:
- 2B (limit switch signal)
- 2C (ground signal)
• Is the voltage approximately 12 V?
Yes
Repair the wiring harness between the power window main switch and the driver-side front power window motor, then go to Step 11.
No
Replace the power window main switch (open circuit or short to B+ in power window main switch).
6*
VERIFY WHETHER MALFUNCTION IS IN POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCH OR ELSEWHERE
• Test the voltage at power window main switch terminal 2D (pulse generator signal).
• Does the voltage alternate between 0 V and approximately 5 V when the driver-side front window is being closed from the completely open position?
Yes
Replace the power window main switch. (malfunction in power window main switch automatic mode control), then go to Step 11.
No
Go to the next step.
7*
VERIFY WHETHER MALFUNCTION IS IN DRIVER-SIDE FRONT POWER WINDOW MOTOR OR ELSEWHERE
• Turn the ignition switch to LOCK position.
• Disconnect the driver-side front power window motor.
• Measure the voltage at driver-side front power window motor terminal D (pulse generator signal).
• Is the voltage approximately 5 V?
Yes
Replace the driver-side front power window motor (open circuit or short to B+/ground in motor), then go to Step 11.
No
Go to the next step.
8*
VERIFY WHETHER MALFUNCTION IS IN WIRING HARNESS (BETWEEN POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCH AND DRIVER-SIDE FRONT POWER WINDOW MOTOR) OR ELSEWHERE
• Turn the ignition switch to LOCK position.
• Disconnect the power window main switch connector and the driver-side front power window motor connector.
• Is there continuity between power window main switch terminal 2D (pulse generator signal) and driver-side front power window motor terminal D (pulse generator signal)?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair the wiring harness between power window main switch and the driver-side front power window motor, then go to Step 11.
9*
VERIFY WHETHER MALFUNCTION IS IN WIRING HARNESS (BETWEEN POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCH AND DRIVER-SIDE FRONT POWER WINDOW MOTOR) OR ELSEWHERE
• Is there continuity between power window main switch terminal 2D (pulse generator signal) and ground?
Yes
Repair the wiring harness between the power window main switch and the driver-side front power window motor, then go to Step 11.
No
Go to the next step.
10*
VERIFY WHETHER MALFUNCTION IS IN WIRING HARNESS (BETWEEN POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCH AND DRIVER-SIDE FRONT POWER WINDOW MOTOR) OR POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCH
• Turn the ignition switch to ON position.
• Measure the voltage at power window main switch terminal 2D (pulse generator signal).
• Is the voltage approximately 12 V?
Yes
Repair the wiring harness between the power window main switch and the front driver-side power window motor, then go to the next step.
No
Replace power window main switch (open circuit or short to B+/ground in power window main switch), then go to the next step.
11
RECHECK MALFUNCTION SYMPTOM AFTER REPAIR
• Reset the driver-side front power window motor.
• Did malfunction disappear?
Yes
• Troubleshooting completed.
• Explain repairs to customer.
No
Recheck malfunction symptoms, then repeat from Step 1 if malfunction recurs.

* :
When performing an asterisked (*) troubleshooting inspection, shake the wiring harness and connectors while doing the inspection to discover whether poor contact points are the cause of any intermittent malfunctions. If there is a problem, check to make sure connectors, terminals, and wiring harness are connected correctly and undamaged.
