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.
Inspection Procedure
- CHECK LIN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
- Check for LIN communication system DTCs related to the power window control system (See
DTC CHECK / CLEAR
).
OK: LIN communication system DTCs are not output.
NG: GO TO LIN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART )
OK: Go to next step
- Check for LIN communication system DTCs related to the power window control system (See
DTC CHECK / CLEAR
).
- CHECK FOR DTC (B2312)
- Check if DTC B2312 is output (See DTC CHECK / CLEAR
).
OK: DTC B2312 is not output.
NG: GO TO DTC B2312 (See DTC B2312 POWER WINDOW SWITCH MALFUNCTION )
OK: Go to next step
- Check if DTC B2312 is output (See DTC CHECK / CLEAR
).
- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (FRONT POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MOTOR LH)
- Use the Data List to check if the power window regulator motor is functioning properly (See DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
).

OFF: Driver side power window switch not operated- OK: Techstream display changes according to operation of multiplex network master switch.
NG: Go to step 4
OK: REPLACE FRONT POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MOTOR ASSEMBLY LH (See REMOVAL )
- Use the Data List to check if the power window regulator motor is functioning properly (See DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
).
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MULTIPLEX NETWORK MASTER SWITCH - BATTERY AND BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the I11 switch connector.
- Measure the voltage and resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
VOLTAGE SPECIFICATIONTester Connection Condition Specified Condition I11-11 (B) - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V Standard Resistance
RESISTANCE REFERENCETester Connection Condition Specified Condition I11-12 (GND) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (FRONT POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MOTOR LH - BATTERY AND BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the I12 motor connector.
- Measure the voltage and resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
VOLTAGE SPECIFICATIONTester Connection Condition Specified Condition I12-2 (B) - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V Standard Resistance
RESISTANCE REFERENCETester Connection Condition Specified Condition I12-1 (GND) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MULTIPLEX NETWORK MASTER SWITCH - FRONT POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MOTOR LH)
- Disconnect the I11 switch connector.
- Disconnect the I12 motor connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
RESISTANCE REFERENCETester Connection Condition Specified Condition I11-20 (UP) - I12-10 (UP) Always Below 1 Ω I11-15 (DOWN) - I12-7 (DOWN) Always Below 1 Ω I11-20 (UP) or I12-10 (UP) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher I11-15 (DOWN) or I12-7 (DOWN) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- INSPECT FRONT POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MOTOR LH
- Remove the motor (See REMOVAL ).
- Apply positive (+) battery voltage to connector terminal 2 (B).NOTE:
- Do not apply positive (+) battery voltage to any terminals, except terminal 2 (B), to avoid damaging the pulse sensor inside the motor.
- Reset the power window regulator motor (initialize the pulse sensor) after installing the power window regulator motor and regulator assembly onto the door.
- Apply negative (-) battery voltage to connector terminals 1 (GND), and 7 (DOWN) or 10 (UP).
- Check that the motor gear rotates smoothly as follows.

CONDITION CHARTMeasurement Condition Specified Condition - Connect the positive (+) battery cable to terminal 2 (B), and connect the negative (-) battery cable to terminal 1 (GND), and keep them connected for 3 seconds or more.
- With terminals 2 (B) and 1 (GND) connected, connect the negative (-) battery cable to terminal 10 (UP).
- Disconnect and reconnect the negative (-) battery cable to terminal 10 (UP) within 1 second.
Motor gear rotates clockwise (Up) - Connect the positive (+) battery cable to terminal 2 (B), and connect the negative (-) battery cable to terminal 1 (GND), and keep them connected for 3 seconds or more.
- With terminals 2 (B) and 1 (GND) connected, connect the negative (-) battery cable to terminal 7 (DOWN).
- Disconnect and reconnect the negative (-) battery cable to terminal 7 (DOWN) within 1 second.
Motor gear rotates counterclockwise (Down)
NG: REPLACE FRONT POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MOTOR ASSEMBLY LH (See REMOVAL )
OK: REPLACE MULTIPLEX NETWORK MASTER SWITCH ASSEMBLY (See REMOVAL )

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