Scheme 13

The window regulator modules are directly connected to each of the front door window regulator motors. The window switches are hard wired by a mux circuit to the respective window regulator module. The respective rear window motor is hard wired to the module. The front window motor is directly attached to the module. Both front door window switches have the express down feature. The module will cease lowering the front glass when a fully down position is sensed through the hall effect sensor.

When a module must be replaced, it is necessary to replace the entire regulator assembly.

WINDOW REGULATOR MODULE

When a door is opened, the respective module will receive a signal from the door ajar switch or the window drop switch. The window drop switch is directly controlled by both the interior and the exterior door handle switches. The drop switch is part of the door latch. This switch is faster than the door ajar switch to signal an open door operation. At that point the module will drop the front door glass 10 mm (0.5 in). However, if the window drop switch should fail, the door ajar sense would also drop the window 10 mm (0.5 in) and the module would set a trouble code. When the module then receives a door ajar switch open (door closed) it would raise the window 10 mm (0.5 in). The module knows the position of the window by counting the motor rotation through the hall effect sensor in the module. If a door window is raised while that door is open, the module will raise the glass up, but when the door is closed it will raise the glass an additional 10 mm (0.5 in). When the convertible top down switch is pressed to the first detent, input is received by the driver window regulator module and passenger window regulator module, which will lower the front windows approximately 40 mm (1.6 in), and lower the rear windows approximately 55 mm (2.0 in). After a 200 ms delay, it energizes the power top down relay to lower the convertible top.

Any diagnosis of the Window Regulator Modules should begin with the use of the scan tool. For information on the use of the scan tool, refer to the appropriate ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSTICS article .
