Control Switches

Individual switches are used for all passenger windows. The driver's door has a single, four-button switch or two, double-button switches. The Camaro, Firebird, and Corvette systems use a pair of single switches mounted on the console and no door switches. The motor cases are grounded on Camaro, Firebird, and Corvette. All other models are grounded through the master switch.
