Pinpoint Test C: A Single Power Window Is Inoperative - LH Front
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Ford Pickup, 2012 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2012 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2012 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
NOTE:
If the LH front window is already in the full DOWN position, skip to pinpoint Step C2.
- C1 CHECK THE LH FRONT POWER WINDOW DOWN OPERATION
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect: LH Front Window Control Switch C504A (Crew Cab) or C535 (regular and SuperCab).
- Ignition ON.
- For regular or SuperCab, connect a fused jumper wire between LH front window control switch C535-7, circuit CBP01 (BU), harness side and LH window control switch C535-1, circuit CPW10 (YE/VT), harness side; and between LH front window control switch C535-5, circuit CPW11 (BU/GY), harness side and LH front window control switch C535-2, circuit GD137 (BK/WH), harness side.
- For Crew Cab, connect a fused jumper wire between LH front window control switch C504A-2, circuit CBP01 (BU), harness side and LH window control switch C504A-1, circuit CPW10 (YE/VT), harness side; and between LH front window control switch C504A-5, circuit CPW11 (BU/GY), harness side and ground.
- Does the LH front window move down?
- Yes : REMOVE the jumper wires. GO to C2.
- No : REMOVE the jumper wires. GO to C3.
- C2 CHECK THE LH FRONT POWER WINDOW UP OPERATION
- Ignition ON.
- For regular or SuperCab, connect a fused jumper wire between LH front window control switch C535-7, circuit CBP01 (BU), harness side and LH window control switch C535-5, circuit CPW11 (BU/GY), harness side; and between LH front window control switch C535-1, circuit CPW10 (YE/VT), harness side and LH front window control switch C535-2, circuit GD137 (BK/WH), harness side.
- For Crew Cab, connect a fused jumper wire between LH front window control switch C504A-2, circuit CBP01 (BU), harness side and LH window control switch C504A-5, circuit CPW11 (BU/GY), harness side; and between LH front window control switch C504A-1, circuit CPW10 (YE/VT), harness side and ground.
- Does the LH front window move up?
- Yes : INSTALL a new LH front window control switch. REFER to WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH .
- No : REMOVE the jumper wires. GO to C3.
- C3 CHECK WINDOW MOTOR CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect: LH Front Window Motor C524.
- Measure the resistance between LH front window motor C524-2, circuit CPW10 (YE/VT), harness side and LH front window control switch C535-1 (regular and SuperCab) or C504A-1 (Crew Cab), circuit CPW10 (YE/VT), harness side.
- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?
- Yes : GO to C4.
- No : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
- C4 CHECK WINDOW MOTOR CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Measure the resistance between LH front window motor C524-1, circuit CPW11 (BU/GY), harness side and LH front window control switch C535-5 (regular and SuperCab) or C504A-5 (Crew Cab), circuit CPW11 (BU/GY), harness side.
- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?
- Yes : VERIFY there are no mechanical binding conditions preventing the glass mechanism from operating correctly. If a mechanical binding issue is found, REPAIR as necessary. If no mechanical binding condition exists, INSTALL a new LH front window regulator and motor. REFER to WINDOW REGULATOR AND MOTOR - FRONT DOOR . TEST the system for normal operation.
- No : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
