Section 203 (Power Window Control System): Inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Toyota Camry. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. INSPECT POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MASTER SWITCH ASSY
    1. Check the continuity between each terminal of the connector.
    NOTE: Whether the operation is good or bad can be judged by the basic function check, because the continuity cannot be checked by UP/DOWN operation of the driver side switch.

  3. INSPECT POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MOTOR ASSY LH 
    NOTE:
    • Be sure not to apply battery voltage to terminals 2,3 and 6 of the power window regulator motor assy LH connector, because it might damage the pulse sensor and the limit switch.
    • Be sure to reset the power window regulator motor assembly (initial position setting of the limit switch) when the power window regulator motor assy LH is installed to the regulator.
    1. Inspect operation of the front LH power window regulator motor assembly.
      1. When adding battery voltage to each connector terminal, check that the motor operates smoothly.

      Standard: 

      STANDARD

      Measurement condition Operational direction
      Battery positive - Terminal 5 Battery negative - Terminal 4 Clockwise
      Battery positive - Terminal 4 Battery negative - Terminal 5 Counterclockwise

    2. Check operation of the PTC inside the power window regulator motor.
    NOTE: Work must be performed with the power window regulator and door glass installed to the vehicle.
    1. Set the DC 400 A probe to terminal 4 or 5 of the wire harness.
      NOTE: Match the arrow mark of the probe with the current direction.
    2. Set the door glass at the fully closed position.
    3. When approximately 60 seconds have passed after fully closing the door glass, check how long the current takes to change from approximately 16 - 34 A to less than 1 A when pulling the power regulator switch UP furthermore (at initial time).

      Standard: Approximately 4 - 90 seconds 

    4. When approximately 60 seconds have passed after the cut-off check, check that the door glass goes down when the power regulator switch is pressed DOWN.
