Circuit/System Testing
Midgate Window Inoperative
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the midgate module.
- Test for less than 1 ohm between ground circuit terminal 6 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Test for less than 1 ohm between ground circuit terminal 16 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuits 10 and 20 and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 8 and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Connect a test lamp between the signal circuit terminal 19 and ground.
- Command the midgate window UP using the window switch on the driver master control. The test lamp should illuminate while commanding the UP state.
- If the test lamp is always OFF, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the DDS.
- If the test lamp is always ON, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the DDS.
- Connect a test lamp between the signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.
- Command the midgate window DOWN using the window switch on the driver master control. The test lamp should illuminate while commanding the DOWN state.
- If the test lamp is always OFF, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the DDS.
- If the test lamp is always ON, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the DDS.
- If all the circuits test normal replace the midgate module.
Midgate Window Switch Malfunction
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the midgate window switch.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal A and ground.
- If the test lamp is always OFF, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Ignition OFF, reconnect the midgate window switch and disconnect the harness connector at the midgate module.
- Connect a test lamp between signal circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- Ignition ON, command the midgate window UP by using the midgate window switch. The test lamp should turn illuminate while commanding the UP state.
- If the test lamp is always OFF, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the midgate window switch.
- If the test lamp is always ON, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the midgate window switch.
- Connect a test lamp between the signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.
- Command the midgate window DOWN by using the midgate window switch. The test lamp should turn ON when commanding the DOWN state.
- If the test lamp is always OFF, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the midgate window switch.
- If the test lamp is always ON, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the midgate window switch.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the midgate module.
