Power Window Control Module: Description and Operation
POWER WINDOW CONTROL MODULE
POWER WINDOW SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The power window system consists of the following components:
-
LF power window master switch
-
RF power window switch
-
Reversible power window motors in each of the doors (circuit breaker protected)
-
PWR WDO 30A circuit breaker
POWER WINDOW SYSTEM CONTROLS
The power window system will operate anytime the ignition switch is in the ACCY or ON position or when RAP is activated.
The LF power window master switch can control the up and down functions of both the windows in the vehicle. The passenger door power window
switch can only control the up and down functions of the passenger window.
POWER WINDOW MOTOR OPERATION
A permanent magnet motor operates each of the power side windows. Each motor raises or lowers the glass when the motor receives voltage. The
direction the motor turns depends on the polarity of the supply voltage. The power window switches control the polarity of the supply voltage. A
built-in circuit breaker protects each motor. The circuit breaker opens when the switch is depressed for a extended period of time under the following
conditions:
-
The window has an obstruction.
-
The window is fully open or fully closed.
The circuit breaker will reset automatically as the circuit breaker cools.
POWER WINDOW OPERATION
The normally closed contacts of the switch are connected to ground and the center pole is connected to the accessory voltage circuit. By placing the
left power window switch in the down position, voltage is applied to the power window motor left front down circuit and to the power window motor.
The other side of the power window motor is connected to ground through the normally closed contacts of the left power window switch through the
power window motor left front up circuit and drives the window down.
By placing the power window switch in the up position the polarity of the motor is reversed and the motor drives the window up.
