Window Malfunction Test
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 GMC Sierra, 2009 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2009 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2009 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate window motor.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 2.0 ohm between the ground circuit terminal 4 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition ON, verify a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 3 and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Test for 6.0-7.0 volts between the LIN circuit terminal 5 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the LIN circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the applicable door module.
- If less than the specified range, test the LIN circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the applicable door module.
- Ignition OFF, reconnect the harness connector at the window motor.
- Ignition ON, observe the appropriate scan tool Window Motor Fault Status parameter while raising and lower the window. The parameter should read No Fault.
- If the parameter reads Motor Fault, Hall Fault, Memory Fault, LIN Fault, Anti-Trap Fault or Thermo Active, test or replace the appropriate power window motor.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the appropriate door module.
