The power window system is designed to open and close all windows from two power window master switch assemblies located in the console.
The rear door windows may be controlled from switches located in each rear door. The left rear door switch will operate only the left rear window, and the right rear door switch will operate only the right rear window. The rear window door switches can also be disabled from the left power window master switch assembly on the left side of the center console.
Two main power window switches are located on the left and on the right side of the center console. The driver window switch, located on the left side of the center console, contains 3 switches: One switch each for control of the 2 left windows and one rear window lockout switch to enable or disable the rear window switches. The window switch on the right side of the center console contains 2 switches for control of the 2 right windows. The switches that control each of the windows are push-pull switches and the switch to enable or disable the rear window switches is a rocker button.
The system consists of a relay, two power window master switch assemblies, two single power window switch assemblies, four window motors, and related wiring harnesses.
The power window system is operational only when the ignition switch is in the RUN position. For rear window door switches to be operational, the rear window lockout switch must also be in enable (ON) position.
Each window motor has an internal self resetting circuit breaker that will open the circuit if the switch is held in the up or down position too long after window has reached the up or down position.
The built-in circuit breaker also prevents damage to motors during extended periods of time at stall.
The passenger's power window switch is located in the power window master switch assembly. When the power window switch, for the passenger's window, is put in the up position, the passenger's window motor operates to raise the window until either the switch is released or the circuit breaker, located within the motor assembly, disables the motor. When the power window switch, for the passenger's window, is put in the down position, the passenger's window motor operates the lower the window until either the switch is released or the circuit breaker, located within the motor assembly, disables the motor.
The driver's power window switch is located in the power window master switch assembly. When the power window switch, for the driver's window, is put in the up position, the driver's window motor operates to raise the window until either the power window switch is released or the circuit breaker, located within motor assembly, disables the motor.
The driver's window has a two-position down power window switch, with the second position used to provide an EXPRESS DOWN feature. When the driver's power window switch is placed in the first down position, before passing detent, the window operates in the same manner as the front passenger's window. When the driver's power window switch is momentarily pressed to the second down position, past detent, it latches in that position and the corresponding motor operates to lower the window to the full-down position regardless of whether the operator continues to apply force to the power window switch. The motor deactivates when either the power window switch is momentarily moved toward the up position or by the express down function. The express down latch position releases within 5 seconds by a built-in timer.
The rear door power window motors are activated by both power window switches on the power window master control switch assembly and also by individual power window switches on the rear doors.
The left power window master switch assembly has a rear window lockout switch which disables the rear power window switches from operating. The rear door power window switches, located in the power window master switch assemblies, operate the same regardless of position of the rear window lockout switch.
When a power window switch, in one of the power window master switch assemblies, is put in the up position, the corresponding power window motor operates to raise the window until either the switch is released or the circuit breaker, located within the motor assembly, disables the motor. When a power window switch, in the power window master switch assembly, is put in the down position, the corresponding power window motor operates to lower the window until either the switch is released or the circuit breaker, located within the motor assembly, disables the motor. When the rear window lockout switch is in the disable (OFF) position, both of the rear door power window switches are disabled, preventing rear window operation from the rear window switches. When the rear window lockout switch is in the enable (ON) position and a rear door power window switch is put in either the up or down position, the power window for that particular switch raises or lowers, accordingly, until the switch is released or the circuit breaker, located within the motor assembly, disables the motor.
When the rear window lockout switch is in the enable (ON) position and both a rear door power window switch and the master switch for the same power window are placed in the down position at the same time, the result will be the same as when only one switch is in the down position.
When the rear window lockout switch is in the enable (ON) position and both a rear door power window switch and the master switch for the same power window are placed in the up position at the dame time, the result will be the same as when only one switch is in the up position.
When the rear window lockout switch is in the enable (ON) position and both a rear door power window switch and the master switch for the same window are placed in opposite directions, the corresponding power window motor will not be actuated.
