Windows: Description and Operation

POWER WINDOWS
The power window system allows each of the door windows to be raised and lowered electrically by actuating a switch on the trim panel of each respective door. A master switch on the driver side front door trim panel allows the driver to raise or lower each of the windows. The power window system receives battery feed through a 30 amp circuit breaker in the junction block, only when the ignition switch is in the RUN position.

The power top switch has three distinct functions:
- Top Down - This is the first detent on the down side of the switch. Holding the switch in this position will lower the top only.
- Top Down/4 window down - This is the second detent on the switch. Holding the switch in this position lowers the convertible top and all 4 windows down simultaneously only if held in this position.
- Top Up - Holding the switch in this position raises the convertible top to the closed position. It will also lower all 4 windows approximately 3 inches to prevent seal damage.

The power window system includes the power window switches on each door trim panel, the circuit breaker in the junction block, the window drop relay and the power window motors inside each door.

Front door window lift motors are of the permanent magnet type. A battery positive and negative connection to either of the two motor terminals will cause the motor to rotate in one direction. Reversing current through these same two connections will cause the motor to rotate in the opposite direction.

Each individual motor is grounded through the master switch.
