Test C: Passenger's Power Window Inoperative

NOTE: On passenger's power window control switch harness connector C489 there are 2 White/Violet wires and 2 Yellow/Violet wires.
  1. Turn ignition switch to LOCK position. Disconnect passenger's power window control switch harness connector C2125 (on driver's door). Test switch. See POWER WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH  under COMPONENT TESTS. If switch is okay, go to next step. If switch is defective, replace driver's power window control switch.
  2. Ensure ignition switch is in LOCK position. Disconnect passenger's power window control switch harness connector C489 (on passenger's door). Measure resistance in White/Violet wire between terminal No. 6 at passenger's power window control switch harness connector C489 (on passenger's door) and terminal No. 1 at passenger's power window control switch harness connector C2125 (on driver's door). See Figure . Resistance should be 5 ohms or less. Measure resistance between ground and terminal No. 6 (White/Violet wire) at passenger's power window control switch harness connector C489 (on passenger's door). Resistance should be greater than 10 k/ohms. If both resistance readings are as specified, go to next step. If either resistance reading is not as specified, repair open and/or short to ground in White/Violet wire.
  3. Measure resistance in Yellow/Violet wire between terminal No. 3 at passenger's power window control switch harness connector C489 (on passenger's door) and terminal No. 7 at passenger's power window control switch harness connector C2125 (on driver's door). Resistance should be 5 ohms or less. Measure resistance between ground and terminal No. 3 (Yellow/Violet wire) at passenger's power window control switch harness connector C489 (on passenger's door). Resistance should be greater than 10 k/ohms. If both resistance readings are as specified, go to next step. If either resistance reading is not as specified, repair open and/or short to ground in Yellow/Violet wire.
  4. Turn ignition switch to RUN position. Measure voltage at terminal No. 2 (Green/White wire) at passenger's window control switch harness connector C489 (on passenger's door). If battery voltage exists, go to next step. If battery voltage does not exist, repair open in Green/White wire.
  5. Test passenger's side switch (on passenger's door). See POWER WINDOW CONTROL SWITCH  under COMPONENT TESTS. If switch is okay, go to next step. If switch is defective, replace passenger's power window control switch.
  6. Turn ignition switch to LOCK position. Disconnect passenger's power window motor harness connector C1869. Measure resistance in White/Violet wire between terminal No. 1 at passenger's power window control switch harness connector C489 (on passenger's door) and passenger's power window motor harness connector C1869. Resistance should be 5 ohms or less. Measure resistance between ground and terminal No. 1 (White/Violet wire) at passenger's window control switch harness connector C489 (on passenger's door). Resistance should be greater than 10 k/ohms. If both resistance readings are as specified, go to next step. If either resistance reading is not as specified, repair open and/or short to ground in White/Violet wire.
  7. Measure resistance in Yellow/Violet wire between terminal No. 7 at passenger's power window control switch harness connector C489 (on passenger's door) and passenger's power window motor harness connector C1869. Resistance should be 5 ohms or less. Measure resistance between ground and terminal No. 7 (Yellow/Violet wire) at passenger's window control switch harness connector C489 (on passenger's door). Resistance should be greater than 10 k/ohms. If both resistance readings are as specified, replace passenger's power window motor. See WINDOW MOTOR  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. If either resistance reading is not as specified, repair open and/or short to ground in Yellow/Violet wire.
