Electronic Window Lifts

FAULT DIAGNOSIS HINTS
The electric window lifts can be operated when the ignition switch is in the Drive position.

A TIP
To avoid damaging the centre console, and to remove switch 386 from the centre console in the easiest possible way when taking readings, proceed as follows:
^ Where the cover part, the centre console and the carpet meet, there is a flap. If this is lifted slightly, a hand can be introduced under it to press out the switch from behind.

1. Check that fuses 9 and 11 are intact and supplied with current.
2. Check that current is supplied to pins 10 and 11 of switch 386.
3. Check that pins 18, 6,14 and 2 are supplied with current when the windows are lowered.
4. Check that pins 19, 7,13 and 1 are supplied with current when the windows are raised.
5. If the window lifts in the rear doors cannot be operated from the switches on the doors, check that current is supplied to pin 9 of the ON/OFF switch.
6. Check the operation of the switches on the rear doors by taking instrument readings on their electrical connections.
7. Check the connectors, wiring harness and ground connections.
