If voltage is 10 volts or less, go to step 3).
  2. Check Right Rear Window Switch Ground Circuits  - Turn ignition off. Using an ohmmeter, check resistance between ground and right rear window switch connector C802 Red/Black wire terminal. Check resistance between ground and right rear window switch connector C802 Yellow/Black wire terminal. If resistances are less than 5 ohms, go to step 6). If either resistance is 5 ohms or more, go to step 4).
  3. Check Driver Door Master Window/Door Lock Control Switch  - Remove and disconnect driver door master window/door lock control switch connector C515. Using an ohmmeter, check resistance between driver door master window/door lock control switch terminals No. 19 and 20. See Figure . If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair open in Red/Light Blue wire. Clear DTCs and retest system operation. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, replace driver door master window/door lock control switch. Clear DTCs and retest system operation.
  4. Check Yellow/Black Wire For Open  - Remove and disconnect driver door master window/door lock control switch connector C515. Using an ohmmeter, check resistance in Yellow/Black wire between driver door master window/door lock control switch connector C515 and right rear window switch connector C802. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, repair open in Yellow/Black wire. Clear DTCs and retest system operation.
  5. Check Red/Black Wire For Open  - Using an ohmmeter, check resistance in Red/Black wire between driver door master window/door lock control switch connector C515 and right rear window switch connector C802. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, replace driver door master window/door lock control switch. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, repair open in Red/Black wire. Clear DTCs and retest system operation.
  6. Check Right Rear Window Switch Down Operation  - Connect jumper wire between right rear window switch connector C802 Yellow/Black and Brown wire terminals. Connect another jumper wire between right rear window switch connector C802 Red/Light Blue and Brown/Yellow wire terminals. Turn ignition switch to RUN position. If right rear window operates in DOWN direction, replace inoperative window switch. Clear DTCs and retest system operation. If right rear window does not operate in DOWN direction, remove jumper wires and go to next step.
  7. Check Right Rear Window Switch Up Operation  - Turn ignition off. Connect jumper wire between right rear window switch connector C802 Brown/Yellow and Red/Black wire terminals. Connect another jumper wire between right rear window switch connector C802 Brown and Red/Light Blue wire terminals. Turn ignition switch to RUN position. If left rear window operates in UP direction, replace inoperative window switch. Clear DTCs and retest system operation. If left rear window does not operate in UP direction, remove jumper wires and go to next step.
  8. Check Brown Wire For Open  - Turn ignition off. Disconnect right rear power window motor connector C801. See POWER WINDOW MOTOR R & I  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Using an ohmmeter, check resistance in Brown wire between right rear window switch connector C802 and right rear power window motor connector C801. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, repair open in Brown wire. Clear DTCs and retest system operation.
  9. Check Brown/Yellow Wire For Open  - Using an ohmmeter, check resistance in Brown/Yellow wire between right rear window switch connector C802 and right rear power window motor connector C801. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, replace right rear power window motor. Clear DTCs and retest system operation. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, repair open in Brown/Yellow wire. Clear DTCs and retest system operation.
