Windows: Description and Operation

When the Ignition Switch is in ACC or RUN, the Master and Right Window Control Switches are powered.

When the Control Switch is placed in either the UP or DN position, current from Circuit Breaker 14 causes the window motor(s) to operate in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, raising or lowering the window(s).

In the REST position, both motor wires are grounded through separate switch contacts.

When the DN switch is pushed, power flows to the DN motor lead. The UP lead acts as ground.

When the UP switch is pushes, power flows to the UP motor lead. The DN lead acts as ground.

The Power Window are protected by Circuit Breaker 14. Each motor assembly also has a self-resetting circuit breaker to cut off power if a switch is held too long in the UP or DN postion.

Tailgate Power Window (Bronco Only)

The Master Tailgate Window Switch, located on the Instrument Panel, is powered by Circuit Breaker 14 when the Ignition Switch is in ACC or RUN. The Tailgate Power Window can also be controlled by a key-operated Tailgate Window Switch, powered at all times by Circuit Breaker 12.
