Power Windows

When the power window (main or sub) switch is operated, the door windows will open or close. This system has the following operations and features

There is a power window lock switch featured on the power window main switch to prevent the door window glass from opening/closing with the front passenger's and rear power window sub-switch.
The power window of the door window glass can be opened/closed for 30 seconds with the timer function after the ignition switch is turned OFF. (The timer expires if the front door < LH or RH > is opened when the timer is in operation.)
The power window main switch contains a one-touch down switch that will automatically open driver's side door window only.

POWER WINDOW TIMER FUNCTION CHECK

After the doors are closed and the ignition switch is turned to the "LOCK" (OFF) position, the power windows should work within 30 seconds. The timer expires at the point the front door is opened during that 30 second time. If not, carry out the troubleshooting. (Refer to DIAGNOSIS in SWS DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTING STRATEGY ).

POWER WINDOW OPERATING CURRENT CHECK

Remove the power window fuse and connect an ammeter as shown in the illustration.
When the power window switch is pressed to the "UP" position, a large amount of current flows at the time the window starts to close and when it is fully closed, so measure the operation current in the interval between these two points. Standard value (A): 5 +/- 1A [Power supply voltage 14.5 +/- 0.5V,25°C (77°F)]
If the operation current is outside the standard value, refer to POWER WINDOW in SYMPTOM CHART in SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS) - LANCER - EVOLUTION article.
