Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Anti-repeat circuit
A repeat lock is provided for each motor to prevent the power-window motors from overheating. The running time for the power-window motor is limited. The motor is switched off for a defined time. The anti-repeat circuit permits at least five complete window movements (OPEN/CLOSE). The last possible movement is always a closing process. If something becomes trapped, the anti-repeat circuit will not prevent opening. The anti-trap circuit always reverses the movement of the side window.
