Corp. Ref. No. 938106

SUBJECT: INCORRECT POWER WINDOW SWITCH REPLACEMENT (PROPER USAGE)


MODELS AFFECTED: 1989 REGALS WITH A31 POWER WINDOWS


CONDITION

Some drivers side power window switches are mistakenly being replaced because of customer comments that the power window switch is sticking when the drivers window is rolled down.

CAUSE

All 1989 Regal drivers side power window switches have an "Express Down" feature that causes the window to go completely down after a single, momentary touch of the switch button. The "Express Down" position of the drivers switch is reached by pushing the button beyond the normal down position. The window may be stopped at any time by momentarily pushing the switch to the up position.

SOLUTION

Explain to the customer the proper use of the "Express Down" feature using the owner's manual and/or service manual as a guide.
