Pinpoint Test D: A Single Power Window Is Inoperative - LH Rear Window

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Mercury Mariner and 2010 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) from the Flex Probe Kit when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
  1. D1 CHECK THE LEFT REAR WINDOW OPERATION FROM THE LH FRONT WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH 
    • Ignition ON.
    • Operate the LH rear window from the LH front window control switch.
    • Does the LH rear window operate from the LH front window control switch? 
    • Yes:  GO to D2  .
    • No:  GO to  D3.
  2. D2 CHECK CIRCUIT CPW14 (VT/WH) FOR VOLTAGE 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: LH Rear Window Control Switch C701.
    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure the voltage between LH rear window control switch C701-3, circuit CPW14 (VT/WH), harness side and ground.

    • Is the voltage greater than 10 volts? 
    • Yes:  INSTALL a new LH rear window control switch. REFER to WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH . TEST the system for normal operation.
    • No:  REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
  3. D3 CHECK CIRCUITS CPW21 (BN) AND CPW22 (GN/VT) FOR VOLTAGE AND GROUND 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: LH Rear Window Motor C703.
    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure the voltage between LH rear window motor C703-2, circuit CPW23 (GY), harness side and LH rear window motor C703-1, circuit CPW24 (WH/VT), harness side while operating the LH rear 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 - REAR DOOR . TEST the system for normal operation.
    • No:  GO to D4  .
  4. D4 CHECK THE LH REAR WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: LH Rear Window Control Switch C701.
    • Carry out the window control switch component test on the LH rear window control switch.

      Refer to appropriate SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article for component testing.

    • Did the LH rear window control switch pass the component test? 
    • Yes:  GO to D5  .
    • No:  INSTALL a new LH rear window control switch. REFER to WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH . TEST the system for normal operation.
  5. D5 CHECK CIRCUITS CPW23 (GY) AND CPW24 (WH/VT) FOR AN OPEN 
    • Measure the resistance between LH rear window control switch, harness side and LH rear window motor, harness side using the following chart:
