REAR QUARTER GLASS

The rear quarter window glass pivots outward from the back just like the manual rear quarter window glass. The power rear quarter window glass is operated remotely from the rear quarter window glass switches located on the roof-mounted overhead console. (Scheme 38)

When the rear window regulator control switch is pressed the power rear quarter glass motor is energized. The power rear quarter glass motor turns the power rear quarter window glass cable. The power rear quarter window glass cable will turn the power rear quarter window latch regulator to either open or close the rear quarter window glass. (Scheme 39)

SYMPTOM INDEX

  1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect the master window regulator control switch connector located on the left front door trim panel. Turn the ignition switch to ON. Measure the voltage on terminal No. 7 (Light Green/Yellow wire) at the master window regulator control switch connector. (Scheme 46) See «WIRING DIAGRAMS»(ref-138783-S30905480172002042300000). Is the voltage greater than 10 volts? If yes, then go to next step. If not, then repair the Light Green/Yellow wire.
  2. Check the master window regulator control switch. See «POWER WINDOW SWITCH»(ref-138783-S27574273832002042900000) under COMPONENT TESTS. Is the master window regulator control switch OK? If yes, then service the Black wire between the master window regulator control switch and ground. If not, then replace the master window regulator control switch. See «POWER WINDOW SWITCH»(ref-138783-S04561537892002042900000) under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.

  1. Check the RLY COIL fuse (10 amp) located in the interior fuse junction panel. Check the POWER WINDOW fuse (30 amp) located in the left engine compartment fuse junction panel. Are the fuses okay? If yes, then go to step 5. If not, then go to next step.
  2. Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Replace the RLY COIL fuse and/or the POWER WINDOW fuse. Turn the ignition switch to ON position. If the RLY COIL fuse fails again, go to next step. If the POWER WINDOW fuse fails again, go to step 4. If neither fuse fails, go to step 5.
  3. Turn the ignition switch to OFF position. Remove the RLY COIL fuse. Disconnect the power window relay located behind the interior fuse junction panel. Disconnect the power window module connector located behind the left front door trim panel. Measure the resistance of the Blue wire between the right terminal of the RLY COIL fuse and ground. See «WIRING DIAGRAMS»(ref-138783-S30905480172002042300000). Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? If yes, then repair the Blue wire. If not then replace the RLY COIL fuse. When repair is complete, go to step 5.
  4. Turn the ignition switch to OFF position. Disconnect the right circuit breaker connector located behind the interior fuse junction panel and the power window relay located behind the interior fuse junction panel.

  6. Turn the ignition switch to OFF position. Disconnect the power window relay. Turn the ignition switch to ON. Measure the voltage on the Light Green wire at the power window relay connector. See «WIRING DIAGRAMS»(ref-138783-S30905480172002042300000). Is the voltage greater than 10 volts? If yes, then go to step 9. If not, then go to next step.
  7. Turn the ignition switch to OFF position. Disconnect the right circuit breaker connector. Turn the ignition switch to ON. Measure the voltage on the White/Blue wire at the right circuit breaker connector. See «WIRING DIAGRAMS»(ref-138783-S30905480172002042300000). Is the voltage greater than 10 volts? If yes, then go to next step. If not, then repair the White/Blue wire between the interior fuse junction panel and the right circuit breaker.
  8. Turn the ignition switch to OFF position. Remove the power window relay. Disconnect the right circuit breaker connector. Measure the resistance of the Light Green wire between the right circuit breaker connector and the power window relay connector. See «WIRING DIAGRAMS»(ref-138783-S30905480172002042300000). Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? If yes, then replace the right circuit breaker. See «CIRCUIT BREAKER»(ref-138783-S16512085332002042900000) under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.
  9. Turn the ignition switch to OFF position. Remove the power window relay. Measure the resistance of the Black wire between the power window relay connector and ground. See «WIRING DIAGRAMS»(ref-138783-S30905480172002042300000). Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? If yes, then replace the power window relay. See «RELAY»(ref-138783-S15202185672002042900000) under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. If not, then go to next step.
  10. Turn the ignition switch to OFF position. Remove the instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT PANELS, ANALOG -- VILLAGER or INSTRUMENT PANELS ELECTRONIC -- VILLAGER article. Disconnect the center green diode strip from the diode junction box connector located behind the instrument cluster. Measure the resistance of the Black wire between the power window relay connector and terminal No. 13 of the diode junction box connector. (Scheme 47) See «WIRING DIAGRAMS»(ref-138783-S30905480172002042300000). Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? If yes, then go to next step. If not, then repair the Black wire.
  11. Turn the ignition switch to OFF position. Measure the resistance of the Black/Red wire between terminal No. 15 of the diode junction box connector and ground. (Scheme 47) See «WIRING DIAGRAMS»(ref-138783-S30905480172002042300000). Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? If yes, then replace the center green diode strip. If not then repair the Black/Red wire and/or Black wire.
