Operation
The window regulators in the car can be operated by means of switches in the centre console between the front seats.

The supply is taken from fuse 11, via white 29-pole connector 152A, to the following witches:

- 162 in the driver's door
- 163 in the co-driver's door

The following switches are supplied from fuse 2 via 2-pole connector 59:

- 190 (left-hand side window)
- 191 (right-hand side window)

To open the window, press the window symbol on the button.

As an example, if switch 190 (for the left-hand rear door) is depressed, one of the two pairs of contacts (depending on whether the window is to be raised or lowered) will close. Current will then flow to regulator motor 193. It then flows through the second pair of contacts of the switch, and to earth (117).

For a complete description of the wiring for the lighting of the switch on cars for the US and CA markets and 1989 model for JP, see also the section entitled "Lighting systems, Lighting for controls - US, CA and 1989 for JP".

Right-hand drive cam
1989 models
The connectors (59) marked SE, FI, EU, GB, FE, AU in the diagram are used for adjusting the operation of the system to suit RHD or LHD cars. This also applies to cars for Japan.

1990 models
On right-hand drive cars, items 454 and 455 on relay 287 change places with items 453 and 452 on switch 163.

Automatic window regulator controls
Unlike the other switches, driver's door switch 162 has two positions for lowering the window. This switch is also connected to time-delay relay 287.

Position 1: The window travels downwards as long as the switch is kept depressed in this position. A positive voltage is supplied to motor 164 across pin 2 on the switch and across the relay contacts. The motor will stop when the switch is released.

Position 2: The window opens fully even if the switch is released after a brief instant.

The coil of relay 287 is now supplied with a positive voltage across pin 5 of the switch, and the relay is energized. The motor is supplied across the closed relay contacts (pin 15). The supply is maintained (for approx. 6 seconds) by the time-delay function of the relay until the window has been lowered fully, even if the switch is released immediately. (The downward travel of the window may be interrupted by setting the switch to position 3, "Raise".)

Position 3: The window will travel upwards as long as the switch is held depressed in this position.

The motor is supplied across pin 7 on the switch and the direction of rotation is reversed, causing the window to be raised.

Fault-tracing hints
The electric window regulators will be operative when the ignition switch is in the drive position.

1. Check fuses 11 and 2 and check that the supply to them is live.
2. Check that terminals 3 and 6 of the switches in the centre console are live. (On 162, terminal 3 only.)
3. Check the switches by measuring at their terminals.
4. Check the connectors, cable harnesses and earth connections.

Automatic window regulator controls
Check the automatic window regulator controls as follows: Set switch 162 to position 2 and check that the supply to pin 4 on the relay is live. Pin 1 should be earthed. Check that pin 3 and pin 15 on the relay are live.
