DESCRIPTION

Note. Elantra models are equipped with front-only power windows or front and rear power windows. Master switch will have 2 or 4 window switches.

A permanent magnet motor operates each of the power windows. The driver's master switch assembly controls all of the power window motors. Each window switch controls only one of the power window motors. If the lockout switch is depressed, rear power windows cannot be controlled by rear window switches, but they can still be controlled from driver's master switch assembly.

OPERATION

Note. Elantra models are equipped with front-only power windows or front and rear power windows. Master switch will have 2 or 4 window switches.

MASTER SWITCH ASSEMBLY

When ignition switch is in ON position, battery voltage is applied to power window relay through fuse No. 12. When relay is energized, battery voltage is supplied to driver's master switch assembly through the closed relay contacts. When either switch in the master switch assembly is operated, battery voltage is applied to the power window motor. Power window motor is grounded through the opposite contact in the master switch assembly.

WINDOW SWITCH

When ignition switch is in ON position, battery voltage is applied to power window relay through fuse No. 12 and the relay energizes. When relay is energized, battery voltage is supplied to driver's master switch assembly through closed relay contacts. When the passenger window switch is operated, battery voltage is applied to one terminal of the power window motor. The other terminal is grounded through the opposite contact in the window switch and master switch assembly.

MOTOR

Connect motor leads directly to battery terminals and ensure motor operates smoothly. Reverse polarity and ensure motor operates smoothly in opposite direction. If operation is abnormal, replace motor.

SWITCH

Remove switch in question and perform continuity testing according to appropriate table.

POWER WINDOW RELAY

Remove power window relay. Check continuity between terminals No. 2 and 4 with power applied to terminals No. 1 and 3. With power applied, there should be continuity. With no power applied, there should be NO continuity. (Scheme 4)

Removal & Installation

  1. Remove quadrant inner cover. Remove rear view mirror mounting screws and the mirror. Disconnect remote control connector (electric mirror).
  2. Remove safety lock knob. Remove screws from inside handle bezel and arm rest. Insert a flat screwdriver between trim fasteners and door panel and pry loose.
  3. Disconnect connectors at power window motor, power window main switch, door lock actuator, outside mirror and trunk lid opener Switch). Remove door trim seal.
  4. Detach regulator assembly. Disconnect power window motor from regulator assembly. Installation is reverse of removal.
CAUTIONWhen loosening mounting screws of regulator and motor assembly, compressed force of regulator spring may cause regulator arm to spring up. When installing door trim seal, butyl tape should not be placed over door trim fastener mounting area.

Manufacturer provides no removal and installation information.
