Front Power Window Operation

NOTE: If the battery is disconnected while the window is moving, the one-touch up and one-touch down feature (and obstacle detection) is disabled prior to initialization.

Refer to: Power Door Window Initialization - Vehicles With: One-Touch Open and Close Front Windows .

Both front windows are equipped with obstacle detection and one-touch up and one-touch down functionality. If an obstacle has been detected in the window opening as the window glass is moving upward, the window regulator motor automatically reverses direction and moves the window glass downward.

Driver Side Front Window Operation 

The driver window control switch communicates to the DDM through a private LIN. When commanded by the driver window control switch, the DDM supplies power and ground to operate the driver front window in the desired direction. The DDM monitors fluctuations of the motor current (ripple count for DC motors) to determine the window glass position.

Passenger Side Front Window Operation 

The driver window control switch communicates to the DDM through a private LIN. The DDM communicates to the PDM through the MS-CAN. When commanded by the driver window control switch or the passenger front window control switch, the PDM supplies power and ground to operate the passenger side front window in the desired direction. The PDM monitors fluctuations of the motor current (ripple count for DC motors) to determine the window glass position.
