6. CHECK POWER WINDOW OPERATION FUNCTION AFTER IGNITION OFF

a. Under both of the following conditions, check that the door glasses, the back door glass and the sliding roof can be operated even after the ignition switch is turned OFF:

- The driver side door is closed

7. CHECK JAM PROTECTION FUNCTION

HINT: The jam protection function prevents any part of your body from getting caught by accident between the door flame and the door glass during power window operation.

a. Check that the door glass goes down by 50 mm (2.0 in.) right when something gets caught between the door flame and door glass during power window operation. However, when the opening amount between the vehicle body and the door glass is less than 200 mm (7.9 in.), the door glass keeps going down until the opening amount reaches 200 mm (7.9 in.) and stops there.

Operative condition:
- AUTO UP via the back door power window switch
- AUTO/MANUAL UP during power window operation after ignition OFF
- MANUAL UP via the back door lock key cylinder

8. CHECK FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION
a. It the pulse sensor in the back door power window motor malfunctions (DTC B2221 is output), the power window functions will be disabled:

- The AUTO UP/DOWN function is disabled.
- The MANUAL DOWN function via the transmitter is disabled.
- The MANUAL UP/DOWN function via the back door power window switch can be performed (the ignition switch ON).
- The MANUAL UP/DOWN function via the back door lock key cylinder can be performed (the ignition switch ON).







9. CHECK DATA LIST WITH HAND-HELD TESTER
a. According to the data list displayed by the hand-held tester, you can read the value of the switch, sensor, actuator and so on without parts removal. Reading the data list as a first step of troubleshooting is one of the method to shorten the labor time.

10. CHECK TEST CODE WITH HAND-HELD TESTER
a. DTC B1241 is a test code to inform of the back door power window switch, defogger switch and rear wiper switch condition and will be output when the switches are ON. In that these codes are displayed operating the switch or the switch or the codes are not displayed even with operating the switch, there may be trouble in the switch circuit.







11. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST WITH HAND-HELD TESTER
a. The active test will indicate if the part is normal or malfunctioning.
