Hint: After the repair it is necessary to check that the fault has been rectified.








- Ignition off.
- Connect the connectors, install the components, etc.
- Ignition on.
Check that window operates by raising/lowering window to its end stops.

Does window operate?

Yes - Troubleshooting procedure complete

No - Fault-tracing information

-------------------------------------------------

Intermittent fault
Check the connectors for the control module and power window lift motor. Check for contact resistance and oxidation. Check for loose connections.
Check the cable between control module connector terminal #B4 and power window lift motor connector terminal #3. Check for an intermittent open-circuit.
Check the cable between the control module connector terminal #3B and the power window lift motor connector terminal #6. Check for an intermittent open-circuit.

Fault-tracing information




Information

Fault-tracing information
The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.
Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.

Do you want to exit fault-tracing?

Yes - Exit Fault-tracing

No - Attempt New Test

Attempt New Test - Checking for permanent or intermittent faults

-------------------------------------------------

Fault-tracing information




Information

Fault-tracing information
If the fault is intermittent, do not verify fault-tracing if the fault does not recur.
It is possible to view the information again, or leave fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC).

Do you want to view the information again?

Yes - Attempt New Test

No - Exit Fault-Tracing
