Power Window System: Description

Power windows are operated by reversible motors mounted on each window regulator. Each passenger's window has an individual switch for separate control. A master window/door lock switch is located on the driver's door from which both front and rear (if equipped) windows may be controlled. A lock-out switch is incorporated in master window/door lock switch. When actuated, it prevents window operation from individual switches.

All models are equipped with a one-touch down feature, allowing the driver to lower the left front window fully by momentarily actuating the driver's window down switch at the master window/door lock switch. Holding the switch down longer allows the driver to stop the window as soon as the switch is released. The one-touch down feature is controlled by a Generic Electronic Module (GEM), which may also be referred to as Central Timer Module (CTM). The GEM offers diagnostics to locate and repair concerns affecting the subsystem that it controls. The one-touch down feature can only be actuated at the master window/door lock switch. After ignition is turned off, delayed accessory feature will allow window operation until a passenger door is opened, or 10 minutes have passed.
