WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Lexus RX 300 and 2002 Lexus RX 300. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
It is necessary to reset the power window motor (in initial position for the limit switch) when separating the window regulator from the power window motor or operating the window regulator with the door glass not installed.
If the jam protection is not functioning properly, perform the following procedure:
- Remove the power window motor. See WINDOW REGULATOR (FRONT DOOR) or WINDOW REGULATOR (REAR DOOR) under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.
- Connect the power window motor and power window switch to the wiring harness of the vehicle.
- Turn the ignition switch ON and operate the power window switch to idle the power window motor in UP side direction for more than 6 rotations or less than 10 rotations (4 seconds or more).
- Assemble the power window motor and regulator. Install the motor when the regulator arm is below the middle point. Align the matchmarks on the power window motor and window regulator gear when installing the power window motor.
- Assemble the power window regulator and door glass.
- Connect the power window switch to the wiring harness and turn the ignition switch ON.
- Repeat UP and DOWN operation several times manually.
- Check if AUTO UP to AUTO DOWN operates in automatic operation. Reset the regulator again when performing the reverse operating after closing the window fully by AUTO UP operation.
- Check the power window function.
NOTE:
Place matchmarks on the power window motor and window regulator gear.
CAUTION:
Never rotate the motor to the down direction until the completion of the window glass installation.
CAUTION:
Take care that the jam protection function does not operate just after resetting.
