Window Switches



Window Switches

Individual window switches are installed in each of the three passenger doors. Window switches for all windows are installed in the driver's door in the top surface of the trim casing.

All window switches are of the non-latching rocker type and contain illumination bulbs that operate when the side lamps or headlamps are on.

The driver's window switch has two switching positions in each direction, inch up/down and one-shot up/down. Operating the switch to the second detent position will activate the one-shot feature. All the passenger windows have conventional power motors, providing an inch up/down operation whilst the corresponding switch is held.

When the switches in the driver's door are used to operate the passenger windows or to isolate the rear windows, the driver's door switch pack outputs a signal to the relevant window regulator. While the isolator is engaged, the rear regulators ignore inputs from the rear window switches, and the driver's door switch pack illuminates a LED in the isolator switch.

With the switches in the rest position, there is battery voltage at both sides of each switch as well as at the window motors. Operating any switch provides a ground path through the switch to the window motor. Operating the switch in the opposite direction switches the voltage path and the ground path to the motor allowing the motor to run in the opposite direction.

Power for window operation is supplied from the window lift relay located in the CJB. When energized, the window lift relay provides feeds to the following fuses, which are also located in the CJB:
^ 7 (25 Amps)
^ 30 (25 Amps)
^ 17 (20 Amps)
^ 31 (20 Amps).
