Power Window Operation

NOTE: If the vehicle battery is disconnected while the door window is moving, the one-touch up feature (and obstacle detection) is disabled. The convertible rear window motors do NOT need to be initialized as they do not have one-touch up or one-touch down functions.

Refer to: Power Door Window Initialization .

The power windows operate when the delayed accessory relay is active. The delayed accessory relay (non-serviceable) is located in the BCM. Both door windows are equipped with obstacle detection and one-touch up and one-touch down functionality. If an obstacle is detected as the window glass is moving upward, the window motor automatically reverses direction and moves the glass downward.

The window one-touch up/down feature is activated by pulling/pressing the window control switch to the up/down position (second detent). This allows the front door window glass to move upward/downward until it is fully closed/open. A momentary activation of the window control switch, while the window glass is moving upward or downward, stops the front door window glass.

If equipped with a memory driver seat, the master window control switch communicates to the DDM through a LIN. To operate the driver door window, the DDM supplies the applicable voltage signals to the driver door window regulator motor to operate the window in the desired direction. To operate the passenger door window from the master window control switch, the DDM communicates to the PDM through the Medium Speed Controller Area Network (MS-CAN), which then supplies the applicable voltage signals to the passenger door window regulator motor to operate the window in the desired direction. The passenger door window control switch provides ground input signals to the PDM, which then supplies the applicable voltage signals to the passenger door window regulator motor to operate the window in the desired direction.
