    • Are the resistances less than 5 ohms? 
    • Yes  : GO to  D4.
    • No  : REPAIR the circuit(s) as necessary. TEST the system for normal operation.
  4. 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.
