Frameless doors

Power to the door window regulator motor is available when the ignition switch is at position ‘0’ and is supplied, through a thermal cut-out, to the left and right window switches. The switches are double pole earth so that the current through a window regulator motor may be switched in either direction to raise or lower the glass.

Frameless doors

To avoid damaging the body seals during door opening, the door glass must be lowered before the door can be opened. This function is controlled by the door modules.

The door module senses the rotation of the latch claw as the door opens, the door module then drives the door window regulator motor briefly to lower the door glass until it clears the glass seals. After closing a door, the window regulator motor operates to raise the door glass to seat against the body seals.
