POWER WINDOW RELAY TEST

  1. Remove power window relay from fuse/relay block, located in engine compartment. (Scheme 1) Check continuity between power window relay terminals No. 1 and No. 3. Continuity should be present.
  2. Connect positive lead of a 12-volt battery to power window relay terminal No. 1, and negative lead of test battery to terminal No. 3. (Scheme 2) Continuity should be present between terminals No. 4 and No. 5 with voltage applied. Replace power window relay if continuity is not as specified.

POWER WINDOW MOTOR TEST

  1. Remove appropriate door trim panel. Connect positive lead of a 12-volt test battery to either motor terminal. Connect negative lead of test battery to other motor terminal. Motor should operate, unless it is already at maximum travel.
  2. Reverse test battery leads. Motor should operate in opposite direction. If motor does not operate, inspect wiring. If wiring is okay, replace motor. Reverse test battery leads again to complete full function test of motor.

POWER WINDOW SWITCH TEST

Remove control switch from trim panel. Using ohmmeter, check continuity of switch. See MASTER WINDOW SWITCH CONTINUITY CHART or PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW SWITCH CONTINUITY CHART. (Scheme 3)and (Scheme 4). Replace appropriate switch as necessary if switch continuity is not as specified.
