Pinpoint Test C: A Single Power Window Is Inoperative - RH Front Window
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Mercury Mariner and 2008 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- C1 CHECK THE RH FRONT WINDOW OPERATION FROM THE LH FRONT WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH
- Key in ON position.
- Operate the RH front window from the LH front window control switch.
- Does the RH front window operate from the LH front window control switch?
- C2 CHECK CIRCUIT CPW14 (VT/WH) FOR VOLTAGE
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: RH Front Window Control Switch C604
- Key in ON position.
- Measure the voltage between RH front window control switch C604-3, circuit CPW14 (VT/WH), harness side and ground.
- Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?
- YES : INSTALL a new RH front window control switch. REFER to Window Control Switch . TEST the system for normal operation.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
- C3 CHECK CIRCUITS CPW20 (WH/OG) AND CPW19 (VT) FOR VOLTAGE AND GROUND
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: RH Front Window Motor C608
- Key in ON position.
- Measure the voltage between RH front window motor C608-1, circuit CPW19 (VT), harness side and RH front window motor C608-2, circuit CPW20 (WH/OG), harness side while operating the RH front window control switch in the down then up positions.
- Is the voltage greater than 10 volts in both switch directions?
- YES : INSTALL a new window regulator and motor. REFER to Window Regulator - Front Door . TEST the system for normal operation.
- NO : Go to C4.
- C4 CHECK THE RH FRONT WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: RH Front Window Control Switch C604
- Carry out the Window Control Switch component test on the RH front window control switch. Refer to appropriate COMPONENT TESTING article.
- Did the RH front window control switch pass the component test?
- YES : Go to C5.
- NO : INSTALL a new RH front window control switch. REFER to Window Control Switch . TEST the system for normal operation.
- C5 CHECK CIRCUITS CPW20 (WH/OG) AND CPW19 (VT) FOR AN OPEN
- Measure the resistance between RH front window control switch C604-5, circuit CPW20 (WH/OG), harness side and RH front window motor C608-2, circuit CPW20 (WH/OG) harness side; and between RH front window control switch C604-2, circuit CPW19 (VT), harness side, and RH front window motor C608-1, circuit CPW19 (VT), harness side.
- Are the resistances less than 5 ohms?
- YES : Go to C6.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
- C6 CHECK CIRCUITS CPW20 (WH/OG) AND CPW19 (VT) FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
- Measure the resistance between RH front window control switch C604-5, circuit CPW20 (WH/OG), harness side and ground; and between RH front window control switch C604-2, circuit CPW19 (VT), harness side and ground.
- Are the resistances greater than 10,000 ohms?
- YES : Go to C7.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit(s) in question. TEST the system for normal operation.
- C7 CHECK CIRCUITS CPW12 (GN/OG) AND CPW13 (BN/YE) FOR AN OPEN
- Disconnect: LH Front Window Control Switch C504a
- Measure the resistance between LH front window control switch C504a-3, circuit CPW12 (GN/OG), harness side and RH front window control switch C604-1, circuit CPW12 (GN/OG) harness side; and between LH front window control switch C504a-8, circuit CPW13 (BN/YE), harness side and RH front window control switch C604-6, circuit CPW13 (BN/YE), harness side.
- Are the resistances less than 5 ohms?
- YES : Go to C8.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
- C8 CHECK CIRCUITS CPW12 (GN/OG) AND CPW13 (BN/YE) FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
- Measure the resistance between RH front window control switch C604-1, circuit CPW12 (GN/OG), harness side and ground; and between RH front window control switch C604-6, circuit CPW13 (BN/YE), harness side and ground.
- Are the resistances greater than 10,000 ohms?
- YES : INSTALL a new LH front window control switch. REFER to Window Control Switch . TEST the system for normal operation.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
