System Description
System DescriptionAnti-pinch Power Window Operation
The system is composed of the driver's MPCS unit, front passenger's MPCS unit, power window master switch, passenger's power window switches, and power window motors. The rear power window switches have built-in control units.
The power window motor incorporates a pulser which generates pulses during the motor's operation and sends pulses to the power window control unit. As soon as the power window control unit detects no pulses from the pulser, the power window control unit makes the power window motor stop and reverse. This is to prevent pinching your hand or fingers during auto-up operation.
Key Cylinder Operation
With the key inserted in the driver's door key cylinder, turn the key a second time within 15 seconds and hold it to operate the power windows and moonroof (clockwise to open, counterclockwise to close). The power windows and moonroof stop moving when the key is released. The anti-pinch operation is not active when closing the power windows and moonroof with the key cylinder.
Keyless Operation
By pressing the UNLOCK button of the remote a second time within 15 seconds and hold, the power windows and moonroof open. The power windows and moonroof stop moving when the UNLOCK button is released. The power windows do not close with the LOCK button.
