Circuit/System Description

The front door, rear door and middle door power window motors communicate with the driver door module (DDM), passenger door module (PDM) and rear door modules and middle door modules over the LIN BUS. The motors contain a logic module which must be normalized or programmed any time the window motor is serviced to provide proper operation and communication between door modules and window motors.


Conditions for Running the DTC

Power window switch activated.


Conditions for Setting the DTC

B320A 39

An internal malfunction has been detected by the DDM or PDM in the front power window motor while commanding the window UP/DOWN.

B320A 42

A not normalized/programmed driver or front passenger door power window motor.

B320A 4B

The front window motor experiences a loss of voltage in the B+ circuit or an open/high resistance in the LIN BUS circuit.


Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The appropriate power window will be inoperative

Circuit/System Verification

Ignition ON, command the appropriate door window DOWN and UP with a scan tool. The door window should perform the DOWN and UP function.


Circuit/System Testing

B320A 39, B320A 42, B320B 39, B320B 42, B320C 39 or B320C 42

Ignition ON, reprogram the appropriate power window and operate the power window within the conditions for running the DTC, verify the DTC does not reset.

If the DTC resets, replace the power window motor.


B320A 4B, B320B 4B or B320C 4B

Ignition ON, command the appropriate power window motor fully DOWN by pressing and holding the window switch for 5 seconds, then command the power window motor fully UP by lifting and holding the window switch for 5 seconds. Operate the power window within the conditions for running the DTC, verify the DTC does not reset

If the DTC resets, replace the power window motor.
