Driver Window Switch
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the driver window switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminals D and C and the B+ circuit terminal E with the LR switch in the INACTIVE position.
- If less than infinite resistance, replace the driver window switch.
- Test for less than 2 ohms of resistance between the signal terminal D and the B+ circuit terminal E with the switch in the UP position.
- If greater than 2 ohms, replace the driver window switch.
- Test for less than 2 ohms of resistance between the signal terminal C and the B+ circuit terminal E with the switch in the DOWN position.
- If greater than 2 ohms, replace the driver window switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminals G and H and the B+ circuit terminal E with the RR switch in the INACTIVE position.
- If less than infinite resistance, replace the driver window switch.
- Test for less than 2 ohms of resistance between the signal terminal G and the B+ circuit terminal E with the switch in the UP position.
- If greater than 2 ohms, replace the driver window switch.
- Test for less than 2 ohms of resistance between the signal terminal H and the B+ circuit terminal E with the switch in the DOWN position.
- If greater than 2 ohms, replace the driver window switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminals B and C and the B+ circuit terminal E with the passenger switch in the INACTIVE position.
- If less than infinite resistance, replace the driver window switch.
- Test for less than 2 ohms of resistance between the signal terminal B and the B+ circuit terminal E with the switch in the UP position.
- If greater than 2 ohms, replace the driver window switch.
- Test for less than 2 ohms of resistance between the signal terminal C and the B+ circuit terminal E with the switch in the DOWN position.
- If greater than 2 ohms, replace the driver window switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminals E and A and the B+ circuit terminal E with the driver switch in the INACTIVE position.
- If less than infinite resistance, replace the driver window switch.
- Test for less than 2 ohms of resistance between the signal terminal E and the B+ circuit terminal E with the switch in the UP position.
- If greater than 2 ohms, replace the driver window switch.
- Test for less than 2 ohms of resistance between the signal terminal A and the B+ circuit terminal E with the switch in the DOWN position.
- If greater than 2 ohms, replace the driver window switch.
Passenger Window Switch
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate passenger window switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminals F and G and the B+ circuit terminal A with the switch in the INACTIVE position.
- If less than infinite resistance, replace the appropriate passenger window switch.
- Test for less than 2 ohms of resistance between the signal terminal G and the B+ circuit terminal A with the switch in the UP position.
- If greater than 2 ohms, replace the appropriate passenger window switch.
- Test for less than 2 ohms of resistance between the signal terminal F and the B+ circuit terminal A with the switch in the DOWN position.
- If greater than 2 ohms, replace the appropriate passenger window switch.
Window Motor
- Install a 30-amp fused jumper wire between the control terminal A and 12 volts. Momentarily install a jumper wire between the control terminal B and ground. The appropriate window motor should perform the UP or DOWN function.
- If the function does not perform as specified, replace the appropriate window motor.
- Reverse the jumper wires. The appropriate window motor should perform the DOWN or UP function.
- If the function does not perform as specified, replace the appropriate window motor.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- β’ You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- β’ Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- β’ The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- β’ You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- β’ You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
