Pinpoint Test C: A Single Power Window Is Inoperative - RH Front
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Mercury Sable, 2008 Ford Taurus X, and 2008 Ford Taurus. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- C1 CHECK THE RH FRONT POWER WINDOW MOTOR
- Disconnect: LH Front Window Control Switch C504a and C504b
- Key in ON position.
- Connect a fused jumper wire between LH front window control switch C504b-1, circuit CPW13 (BN/YE), harness side and LH front window control switch C504a-5, circuit CBP47 (GN/BU), harness side. Connect a second fused jumper wire between LH front window control switch C504b-5, circuit CPW12 (GN/OG) and LH front window control switch C504b-4, circuit GD133 (BK). The RH front window should operate in the up direction.
- Connect a fused jumper wire between LH front window control switch C504b-5, circuit CPW12 (GN/OG), harness side and LH front window control switch C504a-5, circuit CBP47 (GN/BU), harness side. Connect a second fused jumper wire between LH front window control switch C504b-1, circuit CPW13 (BN/YE) and LH front window control switch C504b-4, circuit GD133 (BK). The RH front window should operate in the down direction.
- Does the RH front window operate correctly?
- C2 CHECK CIRCUIT CPW14 (VT/WH) FOR VOLTAGE
- Key in OFF position.
- Connect: LH Front Window Control Switch C504a and C504b
- Disconnect: RH Front Window Control Switch C604
- Key in ON position.NOTE: Be sure the window lock switch is set to the UNLOCK position.
- Measure the voltage between RH front window control switch C604-5, circuit CPW14 (VT/WH), harness side and ground.
- Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?
- YES : Go to C3.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
- C3 CHECK THE LH FRONT WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: LH Front Window Control Switch
- Carry out the LH Front Window Control Switch Component Test. Refer to appropriate COMPONENT TESTING article.
- Did the LH front window control switch pass the component test?
- YES : Go to C4.
- NO : INSTALL a new LH front window control switch. REFER to Window Control Switch . TEST the system for normal operation.
- C4 CHECK THE RH FRONT WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH
- Carry out the RH Front Window Control Switch Component Test. 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 CPW13 (BN/YE) AND CPW12 (GN/OG) FOR AN OPEN
- Measure the resistance between RH front window control switch C604-1, circuit CPW13 (BN/YE), harness side and LH front window control switch C504b-1, circuit CPW13 (BN/YE), harness side.
- Measure the resistance between RH front window control switch C604-6, circuit CPW12 (GN/OG), harness side and LH front window control switch C504b-5, circuit CPW12 (GN/OG), harness side.
- Are the resistances less than 5 ohms?
- YES : Go to C6.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit(s). TEST the system for normal operation.
- C6 CHECK CIRCUIT CPW19 (VT) AND CIRCUIT CPW20 (WH/OG) FOR AN OPEN
- Disconnect: RH Front Window Motor C608
- Measure the resistance between RH front window control switch C604-3, circuit CPW19 (VT), harness side and RH front window motor C608-1, circuit CPW19 (VT), harness side.
- Measure the resistance between RH front window control switch C604-4, circuit CPW20 (WH/OG), harness side and RH front window motor C608-2, circuit CPW20 (WH/OG), harness side.
- Are both resistances less than 5 ohms?
- YES : INSTALL a new RH front window motor. REFER to Glass, Frames and Mechanisms - Exploded View, Front Door and Window Regulator Motor . TEST the system for normal operation.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit(s). TEST the system for normal operation
