Power Windows - Operation






OPERATION

POWER WINDOWS

The door control modules, (Driver Door Module (DDM) and Passenger Door Module (PDM)) opens or closes the windows when a actuation input signal from the window switch is received from the door trim panel. When the power window lockout switch is in the Lock position, the passenger doors windows switches are disabled. This is only powered when the ignition switch is in the RUN or ACCESSORY position.

If equipped, the windows have the option of auto up/down. If equipped, the four door gets auto-up/down feature, while the two door just gets the auto-down feature.

WINDOW MOTOR

Window motors use permanent type magnets. The B+ and ground applied at the motor terminal pins will cause the motor to rotate in one direction. Reversing current through the motor terminals will cause the motor to rotate in the opposite direction.

EXPRESS DOWN WINDOW FEATURE

This feature allows you to remotely lower both front door windows at the same time. To use this feature, press and release the UNLOCK button on the RKE transmitter and then immediately press and hold the UNLOCK button until the windows lower to the desired level or until they lower completely.
