Windows: Description and Operation
POWER WINDOW SYSTEMSThe power window system allows each of the door windows to be raised and lowered electrically by actuating a switch on the trim panel of each respective door. A master switch on the driver side door trim panel allows the driver to raise or lower either front window. The power window system receives battery feed through a circuit breaker in the junction block, only when the ignition switch is in the ON position.
The power window system includes the power window switches on each door trim panel, the circuit breaker in the junction block, and the power window motors inside each door.
Front door window lift motors are of the permanent magnet type. A battery positive and negative connection to either of the two motor terminals will cause the motor to rotate in one direction. Reversing current through these same two connections will cause the motor to rotate in the opposite direction.
Each individual motor is grounded through the master switch.
Window Drop Relay Assembly:
WINDOW DROP RELAY ASSEMBLY
The Window Drop Relay Assembly allows the windows to be automatically lowered when the convertible top is raised or lowered.
It is mounted inside the drivers side door, behind the door trim panel.
The window timer module will lower the windows for 280 to 380 milliseconds when the top switch is pressed up or down. This will lower the windows approximately 1 to 3 inches so that the windows are clear of the top while raising or lowering.
