Windows: Testing and Inspection

Window Motor Initialization

General Procedure

NOTE: Initialization is required to learn both the full UP and full DOWN positions and the profile of the glass as it travels through the glass channel. Once initialized, obstacle detection is enabled.

NOTE: A new (original factory setting) or de-initialized front window motor does not operate in one-touch up mode until initialized.

1. Turn the ignition ON.

2. NOTE: The following step resets the window motor to its original factory settings. If a new front window motor has been installed, proceed to Step 3.

Operate the window control switch in one-touch mode and remove power from the window motor while the window is moving by one of these methods:

1. Disconnect the vehicle battery cable while the window is moving.

2. Remove the LH (Left Hand) or RH (Right Hand) front window motor fuse while the window is moving.

3. Place the window in the full down position.

4. WARNING: Keep objects and body parts clear of the glass panel when carrying out the initialization procedure. During the initialization procedure, the glass panel closes with high force and cannot detect objects in its path. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury.

Activate and hold the window control switch in the UP position at the second detent until the window glass stalls for 2 seconds into the glass top run and release the switch.



5. Activate and hold the window control switch in the DOWN position at the second detent until the window glass stalls for 2 seconds at the bottom of its travel and release the switch.



6. Test for correct window operation by carrying out the one-touch-up and one-touch-down features.
