Left Rear, Right Rear Express Down Window Motors

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2022 Cadillac CT4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

For the right rear and left rear doors, when their window switch is pressed in the down position, battery positive voltage is applied to their respective window motor control circuit and ground to the other window motor control circuit causing that window to open. When the individual window switch is pulled in the up position, voltage and ground is applied to the window motor in the opposite direction causing that window to close. The return path to ground is supplied through the inactive control circuit being normally grounded through the window switch.

Each rear side door window switch communicates to the BCM by a serial data circuit. When the driver wishes to control the left rear or right rear window, the driver will use the appropriate switch on the driver front side door window control switch. When this switch is used, a serial data message is sent to the BCM requesting a window motor command, the BCM will then send a serial data message to the appropriate rear side door window switch which will then command that window to move in the direction requested.
