Pinpoint Test D: A Single Power Window Is Inoperative - LH Rear Or RH Rear
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Lincoln LS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- D1 CHECK THE VOLTAGE TO THE LR OR RR WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: Inoperative Rear Window Control Switch C701/C801.
- Key in ON position.
- Measure the voltage between the inoperative rear window control switch C701-3, circuit 7-AJ14 (YE/BU) (LH rear), harness side and ground or C801-3, circuit 7-AJ24 (YE) (RH rear), harness side and ground.
- Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?
NOTE: Make certain the window lock-out switch is in the UNLOCK position.- Yes : GO to D2.
- No : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
- D2 CHECK THE GROUNDS TO THE REM
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: REM C420f, C420g.
- Measure the resistance between the REM C420f-3, circuit 31-DK30 (BK/OG), harness side and ground; and between the REM C420g-2, circuit 31-DK30 (BK/OG), harness side and ground.
- Are the resistances less than 5 ohms?
- Yes : GO to D3.
- No : REPAIR the circuit(s) as necessary. TEST the system for normal operation.
- D3 CHECK CIRCUITS 8-AJ14A (WH/BU), 10-AJ14A (GY/VT), 8-AJ24 (WH) AND 10-AJ24 (GY) FOR AN OPEN
- Disconnect: REM C420c, C420d.
- If the LH rear window motor is inoperative, measure the resistance between the LH rear window control switch C701-5, circuit 8-AJ14A (WH/BU), harness side and the REM C420c-24, circuit 8-AJ14A (WH/BU), harness side; and between the LH rear window control switch C701-2, circuit 10-AJ14 (GY/VT), harness side and the REM C420c-22, circuit 10-AJ14A (GY/VT), harness side.
- If the RH rear window motor is inoperative, measure the resistance between the RH rear window control switch C801-5, circuit 8-AJ24 (WH), harness side and the REM C420d-7, circuit 8-AJ24 (WH), harness side and between the RH rear window control switch C801-2, circuit 10-AJ24 (GY), harness side and the REM C420-20, circuit 10-AJ24 (GY), harness side.
- Are the resistances less than 5 ohms?
NOTE: If the LH rear window motor is inoperative, follow Step 2.
If the RH rear window motor is inoperative, follow Step 3.Fig 3: Measuring Resistance Between LH Rear Window Control Switch C701-5, Circuit 8-AJ14A And REM C420c-24, Circuit 8-AJ14A; And Between C701-2, Circuit 10-AJ14 And REM C420c-22, circuit 10-AJ14ACourtesy of FORD MOTOR CO.
- Yes : GO to D4.
- No : REPAIR the circuit(s) as necessary. TEST the system for normal operation.
- D4 CHECK THE INOPERATIVE WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH
- Connect: REM C420c, C420d, C420f, C420g.
- Key in ON position.
- Connect a fused (5A) jumper wire between the inoperative window control switch C701/C801-3, circuit 7-AJ14 (YE/BU) (LH rear), harness side or circuit 7-AJ24 (YE) (RH rear), harness side and C701/C801-5, circuit 8-AJ14 (WH/BU) (LH rear), harness side or circuit 8-AJ24 (WH) (RH rear), harness side. The window motor should operate in the UP direction.
- Connect a fused (5A) jumper wire between the inoperative window control switch C701/C801-3, circuit 7-AJ14 (YE/BU) (LH rear), harness side or circuit 7-AJ24 (YE) (RH rear), harness side and C701/C801-2, circuit 10-AJ14 (GY/VT) (LH rear), harness side or circuit 10-AJ24 (GY) (RH rear), harness side. The window motor should operate in the DOWN direction.
- Does the window operate correctly?
- Yes : INSTALL a new rear window control switch. REFER to WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH in this article. TEST the system for normal operation.
- No : GO to D5.
- D5 CHECK THE INOPERATIVE WINDOW MOTOR CIRCUITS
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: REM C420f, C420g.
- Disconnect: Inoperative Window Motor C703/C803.
- Measure the resistance between the LH rear window motor C7031-1, circuit 35-AJ13A (VT/BU), harness side and the REM C420f-1, circuit 35-AJ13 (VT/BU), harness side; and between C703-2, circuit 34-AJ13A (BU/RD), harness side and the REM C420F-2, circuit 34-AJ13 (BU/RD), harness side.
- Measure the resistance between the RH rear window motor C803-1, circuit 35-AJ23 (VT/WH), harness side and the REM C420g-3, circuit 35-AJ23 (VT/WH), harness side; and between C803-2, circuit 34-AJ23 (BU/OG), harness side and the REM C420g-1, circuit 34-AJ23 (BU/OG), harness side.
- Are the resistances less than 5 ohms?
NOTE: If the LH rear window motor is inoperative, follow Step 4. If the RH rear window motor is inoperative, follow Step 5.Fig 7: Measuring Resistance Between LH Rear Window Motor C7031-1, Circuit 35-AJ13A And REM C420f-1, Circuit 35-AJ13; And Between C703-2, circuit 34-AJ13A and REM C420F-2, Circuit 34-AJ13Courtesy of FORD MOTOR CO.
- Yes : INSTALL a new window motor. REFER to REAR DOOR WINDOW GLASS in this article.
- No : REPAIR the circuit(s) as necessary. TEST the system for normal operation.
