Power Windows System Description

Auto Reverse Power Window Operation

The system is composed of the driver's MPCS unit, the front passenger's MPCS unit, the power window master switch, the passenger's power window switch, and the power window motors.

The rear power window switches have built-in control units.

The power window motor incorporates a Hall IC unit (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 a change in pulse frequency from the Hall IC unit (pulser), the power window control unit makes the power window motor stop and reverse. This prevents pinching your hand or fingers during auto-up operation. The auto reverse function does not work when the driver's window switch is held in the up position.






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.
