The power window master switch has a Auto-Down
feature. The switch is equipped with two detent posi-
tions when actuating the power window OPEN. The
first detent position allows the window to roll down
and stop when the switch is released. The second
detent position actuates an integral express roll
down relay that rolls the window down after the
switch is released. When the express down circuit
senses stall current (window has reached end of
down travel), the switch will turn current off to the
motor. The AUTO feature can be cancelled by actuat-
ing the switch UP or DOWN while window is in
motion. If the electronic circuit in the switch fails to
detect a stall current, the auto down circuit will time
out within 9 to 13 seconds.

OCCUPANT RESTRAINT
CONTROLLER
DESCRIPTION
The front driver and passenger airbag system is
designed to reduce the risk of fatality or serious
injury, caused by a frontal impact of the vehicle.
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) contains
the impact sensor and energy reserve capacitor. It is
mounted on a bracket, under the instrument panel,just forward of the storage bin. The ORC monitors
the system to determine the system readiness. The
ORC contains on-board diagnostics and will light the
AIRBAG warning lamp in the message center when a
problem occurs.
OPERATION
The impact sensor provides verification of the
direction and severity of the impact. One impact sen-
sor is used. It is located inside the Occupant
Restraint Controller (ORC). The impact sensor is an
accelerometer that senses deceleration. The decelera-
tion pulses are sent to a microprocessor which con-
tains a decision algorithm. When an impact is severe
enough to require airbag protection, the ORC micro-
processor sends a signal that completes the electrical
circuit to the driver and passenger airbags. The
impact sensor is calibrated for the specific vehicle
and reacts to the severity and direction of an impact.
REMOVAL
NOTE: Diagnose the ORC using the service/diag-
nostic manual.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove storage bin from instrument panel.
Refer to Body, Instrument Panel, Storage Bin,
Removal.
(3) Remove three bolts holding ORC to floor
bracket.
(4) Disconnect the wire connector from ORC.
(5) Remove the ORC assembly from vehicle.
