NG: Go to step 2
OK: END
- Turn the window lock switch OFF and operate the passenger side power window switch on the power window regulator master switch. Check that the remote UP/ DOWN function operates normally.
- CHECK MANUAL UP/DOWN FUNCTION (PASSENGER SIDE)
- Check that the power window can be operated with the power window regulator switch.
OK: Manual UP/DOWN function operates normally.
NG: OTHER PROBLEM (See PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE )
OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- Check that the power window can be operated with the power window regulator switch.
- CHECK AUTO UP/DOWN FUNCTION (PASSENGER SIDE)
- Check that the power window can be operated with the power window regulator switch.
OK: AUTO UP/DOWN function operates normally.
NG: OTHER PROBLEM (See AUTO UP/DOWN FUNCTION DOES NOT OPERATE ON PASSENGER SIDE )
OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- Check that the power window can be operated with the power window regulator switch.
- CHECK WIRE HARNESS (REGULATOR SWITCH (PASSENGER SIDE))
- Disconnect the P12 regulator switch connector.
- Turn the ignition switch ON.
- Using an oscilloscope, check the waveform of the connector.
Standard:
The waveform is shown in Fig 2 .
REGULATOR SWITCH (PASSENGER SIDE) REFERENCETester Connection P12-2 (MPX1) - P12-7 (GND) Tool Setting 10V/DIV, 1 ms/DIV. Condition Operating passenger side switch on master switch
NG: Go to step 5
OK: REPLACE POWER WINDOW REGULATOR SWITCH ASSY (PASSENGER SIDE)
- CHECK WIRE HARNESS (POWER WINDOW REGULATOR SWITCH ASSY - POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MASTER SWITCH ASSY)
- Disconnect the P12 regulator switch connector.
- Disconnect the P9 regulator master switch connector.
- Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.
Standard:
POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MASTER SWITCH ASSY TERMINAL RESISTANCETester Connection Specified Condition P12-2 (MPX1) - P9-7 (MPX1) Below 1 Ω P12-2 (MPX1) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- INSPECT POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MASTER SWITCH ASSY (WINDOW LOCK SWITCH)
- Remove the master switch but do not disconnect the connector.
- Turn the ignition switch ON,
- Measure the voltage of the connector.
Standard:
POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MASTER SWITCH ASSY TERMINAL VOLTAGETester Connection Window Lock Switch Condition Specified Condition P9-6 (PCT) - Body ground OFF (Normal) 10 to 14 V P9-6 (PCT) - Body ground ON (Lock) Below 1 V
NG: REPLACE POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MASTER SWITCH ASSY
OK: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (POWER WINDOW REGULATOR SWITCH ASSY - POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MASTER SWITCH ASSY)

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.
