Power Window Motor: Testing and Inspection

DOOR WINDOW MOTOR INITIALIZATION

CAUTION: Make sure that no obstructions are present in the window system when carrying out this procedure.

NOTE:
- A new or de-initialized LH front power window motor will only operate in proportional up/down mode until initialized. A new LH front window motor only needs initialization. If a new LH front window motor has been installed, proceed to the initialization steps.
- The original LH front power window motor must be de-initialized, then initialized whenever the LH front window motor is removed from window regulator drum housing, a new LH front window regulator is installed, a new LH front window glass is installed, a new LH front glass top run is installed, or for any operation in which grease or lubricants are applied to the LH front window regulator or glass run.
- All LH front window components (window glass, window regulator, window motor, and glass top run) must be installed and tightened to specification before carrying out this procedure.
- If the initialization procedure is only partially completed, the LH front window motor will remain un-initialized and will operate only in proportional UP or DOWN mode.

De-Initialization

NOTE:
- A new LH front window motor only needs initialization. If a new LH front window motor has been installed, proceed to the initialization steps.
- The LH front window motor will only operate in proportional UP or DOWN mode after it has been de-initialized.

1. Turn the ignition key ON.

2. NOTE: An assistant is required to carry out this step.

While operating the LH front window, remove the LH front window motor fuse 30 (30A).

3. Turn the ignition key OFF.

Initialization
4. Turn the ignition key ON.
5. Press and hold the LH front window control switch in the UP position until the window glass stalls in the top run. After approximately 2 seconds, release the switch.
6. Press and hold the LH front window control switch in the DOWN position until the window glass stalls at the bottom of the run. After approximately 2 seconds, release the switch.
7. Test the system for proportional UP, DOWN, and one-touch UP and DOWN movement.
