Circuit/System Description
The body control module (BCM) monitors the window UP/DOWN command from the driver door module (DDM). When the rear window UP or DOWN command is received, the BCM sends a signal to the appropriate rear window switch. The rear window switches continuously monitor the up and down signal circuits, if no function is being commanded, the signal voltage is at approximately B+ voltage. If the UP or DOWN function is commanded, the BCM signal voltage drops approximately 5 volts and the appropriate rear window switch will then command the window in the UP or DOWN direction.
Conditions for Running the DTC
Battery voltage is between 9-16 volts.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
B3819 00
The BCM detects a fault in the left rear window up circuit.
B3820 00
The BCM detects a fault in the left rear window down circuit.
B3822 00
The BCM detects a fault in the right rear window up circuit.
B3823 00
The BCM detects a fault in the right rear window down circuit.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The left or right rear power window will be inoperative from the driver master control.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | The DTC will be current for as long as the fault is present. |
| • | When the fault is no longer present, the DTC will be a history DTC. |
| • | A history DTC will clear after 50 ignition cycles. |

Circuit/System Verification
Ignition ON, command the appropriate rear door window UP and DOWN by using the window switch on the driver master control. The rear door window should perform UP and DOWN function.
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate rear window switch.
- Ignition ON, test for greater than 9 volts between the signal circuit terminal A and ground while commanding the rear window UP by using the window switch on the driver master control.
- Test for greater than 9 volts between the signal circuit terminal C and ground while commanding the rear window DOWN by using the window switch on the driver master control.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the rear window switch.
| ⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
| ⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
