  8. Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Disconnect right rear power window motor connector. See POWER WINDOW MOTOR  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Measure resistance in Brown wire between right rear window switch connector and right rear power window motor connector. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is greater than 5 ohms, repair open in Brown wire. Clear DTCs and retest system.
  9. Measure resistance in Brown/Yellow wire between right rear window switch connector and right rear power window motor connector. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, replace right rear power window motor. If resistance is greater than 5 ohms, repair open in Brown/Yellow wire. Clear DTCs and retest system.
