Pinpoint Test F: A Single Power Window Is Inoperative - Power Sliding Window
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Lincoln Mark LT and 2007 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- F1 CHECK THE VOLTAGE TO THE POWER SLIDING WINDOW
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: Rear Window Adjust Switch C980
- Key in ON position.
- Measure the voltage between rear window adjust switch C980-4, circuit 400 (LB/BK) harness side and ground.
- Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?
- YES : Go to F2.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
- F2 CHECK GROUND TO THE REAR WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH
- Key in OFF position.
- Measure the resistances between rear window adjust switch C980-3, circuit 57 (BK) harness side and ground, and between C980-5, circuit 57 (BK) harness side and ground.
- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?
- YES : Go to F3.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit(s). TEST the system for normal operation.
- F3 CHECK THE REAR WINDOW ADJUST SWITCH
- Key in ON position.
- Connect a fused jumper between rear window adjust switch C980-4, circuit 400 (LB/BK) and C980-2, circuit 1941 (YE/LB) harness side; and between rear window adjust switch C980-6, circuit 1942 (RD/YE) and C980-3, circuit 57 (BK) harness side. The rear sliding window should open.
- Connect a fused jumper between rear window adjust switch C980-4, circuit 400 (LB/BK) and C980-6, circuit 1942 (RD/YE) harness side; and between rear window adjust switch C980-2, circuit 1941 (YE/LB) and C980-3, circuit 57 (BK) harness side. The rear sliding window should close.
- Did the rear power sliding window open and close?
- YES : INSTALL a new rear window adjust switch. TEST the system for normal operation.
- NO : Go to F4.
- F4 CHECK CIRCUITS 1941 (YE/LB) AND 1942 (RD/YE) FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: Rear Sliding Window Motor C3145
- Key in ON position.
- Measure the voltage between rear sliding window motor C3145-1, circuit 1941 (YE/LB) harness side and ground, and between C3145-2, circuit 1942 (RD/YE) harness side and ground.
- Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?
- YES : REPAIR the circuit(s). TEST the system for normal operation.
- NO : Go to F5.
- F5 CHECK CIRCUITS 1941 (YE/LB) AND 1942 (RD/YE) FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
- Measure the resistance between rear sliding window motor C3145-1, circuit 1941 (YE/LB) harness side and ground; and between C3145-2, circuit 1942 (RD/YE) harness side and ground.
- Is the resistance greater than 10,000 ohms?
- YES : Go to F6.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit(s). TEST the system for normal operation.
- F6 CHECK CIRCUITS 1941 (YE/LB) AND 1942 (RD/YE) FOR AN OPEN
- Measure the resistance between rear sliding window motor C3145-1, circuit 1941 (YE/LB) and rear window adjust switch C980-2, circuit 1941 (YE/LB) harness side; and between rear sliding window motor C3145-2, circuit 1942 (RD/YE) and rear window adjust switch C980-6, 1942 (RD/YE) harness side.
- Are the resistances less than 5 ohms?
- YES : INSTALL a new rear sliding window motor. REFER to Window Regulator and Motor - Rear in this article. TEST the system for normal operation.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit(s). TEST the system for normal operation.
