(6) Steps (3, 4 or 5) above will confirm system op-
eration. Indicator light illumination means that
there is power available at the output of the relay
only, and does not necessarily verify system opera-
tion. (7) If turning the switch ON produced no distinct
current draw on the ammeter the problem should be
isolated in the following manner: (a) Confirm the ignition switch is ON.
(b) Ensure that the heated rear glass feed wire is
connected to the terminal or pigtail and that the
ground wire is in fact grounded. (c) Ensure that the fusible link and control cir-
cuit fuse is operational and all electrical connec-
tions are secure.
(8) When the above steps have been completed and
the system is still inoperative, one or more of the fol-
lowing is defective: (a) Control switch/timer relay module.
(b) All rear window grid lines would have to be
broken or one of the feed wires are not connected
for the system to be inoperative.
(9) If turning the switch ON produces severe volt-
meter deflection, the circuit should be closely
checked for a shorting condition. (10) If the system operation has been verified but
indicator lamp does not light, replace the switch. (11) For detailed wiring information, refer to group
8W, Wiring Diagrams.
GRID TEST
The horizontal grid lines and vertical bus bar lines
printed and fired on inside surface of rear window
glass (Fig. 2) comprise an electrical parallel circuit.
The electrically conductive lines are composed of a
silver-ceramic material which when fired on glass be-
comes bonded to the glass and is highly resistant to
abrasion. It is possible, however, that a break may
occur in an individual grid line resulting in no cur-
rent flow through the line. To detect breaks in grid
lines the following procedure is required: (1) Turn ignition ON and turn control switch to
ON. The indicator light should come on. (2) Using a DC voltmeter with 0-15 volt range,
contact terminal B with negative lead of voltmeter.
With positive lead of voltmeter, contact terminal A
(Fig. 2). The voltmeter should read 10-14 volts. A
lower voltage reading indicates a poor ground con-
nection. (3) With negative lead of voltmeter, contact a good
body ground point. The voltage reading should not
change. (4) Connect negative lead of voltmeter to terminal
B and touch each grid line at Mid-Point with Posi-
tive lead. A reading of approximately 6 volts indi-
cates a line is good. A reading of 0 volts indicates a
break in line between Mid-Point C and terminal A.
A reading of 10-14 volts indicates a break between Mid-Point C and terminal B. Move toward break and
voltage will change as soon as break is crossed (Figs.
2 and 3).
CONTROL SWITCH/TIMER RELAY MODULE TEST
Control switch/timer relay module may be tested
in-vehicle or bench tested. In vehicle testing is ac-
complished in the following manner: (1) Remove the switch, relay assembly from the in-
strument panel or console, see Group 8E, Instrument
Panel and leave the switch connector plugged in. (2) Turn ignition ON.
(3) Using a DC voltmeter, with 0-15 range, check
voltage at terminals B, I and L. (Figs. 3 and 4). Ter-
minals B and I should confirm a voltage of 10 to 14
volts to ground when the ON switch is pressed. Ter-
minal L should confirm voltage to ground. When ter-
minals B and I show no voltage, trace circuit
upstream of switch/relay module for problem (wiring
cut, fusible link or circuit breaker inoperative, bulk-
head connector not operative, etc.) If terminal L in-
dicates voltage, place switch in Off position. If
voltage at L is still indicated or indicator lamp re-
mains on, the switch/relay module should be re-
placed. (4) If the relay checks out to this point, momen-
tarily operate switch to ON position. The indicator
lamp should come on and remain on for approxi-
mately 10 minutes. Terminal L should confirm volt-
age. If the indicator lamp fails to light or voltage at
terminal L is not confirmed the switch/relay module
should be replaced.

ELECTRIC MOTOR TEST
Make certain battery is in normal charged condi-
tion before circuits are tested. To determine which motor is faulty, check each in-
dividual door for electrical lock and unlock or discon-
nect the motor connectors one at a time, while
operating the door lock switch. In the event that
none of the motors work, the problem maybe caused
by a shorted motor, or a bad switch. Disconnecting
the defective motor will allow the others to work. The power lock motors are also equipped with a
thermal protection system which prevents the motors
from burning out. The motors may chatter if they are
continuously activated. To test an individual door lock motor, disconnect
the wire connector at the motor (Fig. 2 and 3). Test
at the connector for 12 volts while applying door lock
switch. If no voltage repair wire. Apply 12 volts to
the motor terminal, and a known good ground to the
other terminal to check motor operation. Should the motor defect be a result of a broken
wire, it should have no effect on the operation of the
other motors.
POWER DOOR LOCKS
When AC, AG, AJ or AY Body vehicles are
equipped with power door locks, the system includes
an automatic door locking feature which is actuated
through the vehicle's body controller. When this system is enabled the automatic door
locks will work automatically. When the system is
disabled the door locks will work by use of the door
lock switches only. The body controller controls the power locks when
the door lock switch is activated. If the door lock switch is pressed for longer than eight consecutive
seconds, the body controller will de-energize the door
lock relay. Also, the body controller will automati-
cally lock all doors when all of the conditions below
are met:
² All doors are closed
² The vehicle speed exceeds 15 61 MPH
² The throttle position sensor tip-in is greater than
10 62 degrees
The DRB II must be used to enable/disable the au-
tomatic door lock system. Refer to the Body Diagnos-
tic Procedures Manual for the procedure. The body controller will automatically re-lock all
doors if the above conditions are met and if any of
the doors become ajar. The body controller does not
control the door unlock function. The switch is wired
directly to the lock relay.

and disarm the Theft Security System. Pushing and
releasing the button once will unlock the driver's
door. Two times within five seconds all doors will un-
lock.
² LOCK all doors, set Theft Security System and
chirp horn. Chirp of horn is a short toot to notify
that the alarm system is set and the indicator lamp
on the instrument panel will flash for about 15 sec-
onds.
² Unlock Trunk Lid
² The receiver is capable of retaining VAC even
when power is removed.
² Each receiver must have at least one and no more
than two transmitters.
