NOTE: The door module feeds battery current to
both terminals of the rear door power window
motors when the power window lockout switch is in
the Unlock position, until the master window switch
on the driver side front door is actuated. The door
module feeds ground to both terminals of the rear
door power window motor when the power window
lockout switch is in the Lock position, until the
master window switch on the driver side front door
is actuated.
(12) Reconnect the 15-way door wire harness con-
nector for the door module to the door module con-
nector receptacle. Connect the battery negative cable.
Check for battery voltage at each cavity in the door
wire harness connector for the power window motor.
Each cavity should have battery voltage when the
power window switch is in the neutral position. Each
cavity should also have battery voltage in one other
switch position, either up or down, and zero volts
with the switch in the opposite position. If OK, (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER WINDOWS/WINDOW
MOTOR - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If not OK,
replace the faulty door module.POWER WINDOW SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The power window motors are controlled by a two-
way momentary switch mounted on the trim panel of
each passenger door, and four two-way momentary
switches on the driver side front door trim panel. The
driver side front door trim panel also has a two-posi-
tion power window lockout switch. Each power win-
dow switch, except the lockout switch, is illuminated
by a Light-Emitting Diode (LED) that is integral to
the switch paddle.
The front door power window switches and the
power window lockout switch are integral to the
Driver Door Module (DDM) and Passenger Door
Module (PDM). The front door power window
switches and their lamps cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the entire DDM
or PDM unit must be replaced. The rear door power
window switches and their lamps cannot be adjusted
or repaired but, if faulty or damaged, only the
affected rear door power window switch must be
replaced. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC
CONTROL MODULES/DRIVER DOOR MODULE -
REMOVAL).
OPERATION
The front door power window switches provide an
up or down (or lock and unlock signal in the case of
the lockout switch) to the door module circuitry. The
Driver Door Module (DDM) circuitry controls the out-
put to the driver side front and rear door power win-
dow motors, and supplies electrical current as
required for the stand-alone operation of the driver
side rear door power window switch. The Passenger
Door Module (PDM) circuitry controls the output to
the passenger side front and rear door power window
motors, and supplies electrical current as required
for the stand-alone operation of the passenger side
rear door power window switch.
When a DDM-integrated master power window
switch for a passenger side window is actuated, or
when the power window lockout switch is actuated to
disable the passenger door power windows, the DDM
circuitry sends a message to the PDM over the Pro-
grammable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus
to control the output to that power window motor(s).
The power window switch for the driver side front
door power window has two detent positions in the
Down direction. The first detent provides normal
power window down operation. If this switch is
depressed to the second detent, the Auto Down cir-
cuitry of the DDM is activated. The Auto-Down cir-
cuitry will automatically move the driver side front
door window to its fully lowered position, even if the
power window switch is released. The Auto-Down
8N - 36 POWER WINDOWSWJ
POWER WINDOWS (Continued)

event will be automatically cancelled and the window
movement will be stopped if the DDM circuitry
detects a second input from the driver side front door
power window switch, in either direction.
Each power window switch, except the lockout
switch, is illuminated by a Light-Emitting Diode
(LED) when the ignition switch is turned to the On
position. However, when the lockout switch is placed
in the Lock position, the LED for the locked-out front
and rear passenger door power window switches is
turned off.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the power window switches.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER WINDOW

tail wires and steering wheel wire harness in the
steering wheel hub area are not pinched between the
driver airbag and the steering wheel armature.
(6) From the underside of the steering wheel,
install and tighten the two screws that secure the
driver airbag to the steering wheel armature.
Tighten the screws to 10 N´m (90 in. lbs.).
(7) Do not reconnect the battery negative cable at
this time. The supplemental restraint system verifi-
cation test procedure should be performed following
service of any supplemental restraint system compo-
nent. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/RESTRAINTS -
STANDARD PROCEDURE - VERIFICATION TEST).FRONT IMPACT SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
Two front impact sensors are used on this model,
one each for the left and right sides of the vehicle
(Fig. 24). These sensors are mounted remotely from
the impact sensor that is internal to the Airbag Con-
trol Module (ACM). The right and left front and side
impact sensors are identical in construction and cal-
ibration with the exception of the right-hand and
left-hand die cast aluminum mounting brackets to
which each front impact sensor is secured with two
screws. The front impact sensor brackets are secured
with three screws to the front and inboard sides of
the right and left vertical members of the radiator
support within the engine compartment.
The impact sensor housing has an integral connec-
tor receptacle and two integral mounting ears, each
with a metal sleeve to provide crush protection. A cav-
ity in the center of the molded black plastic impact
sensor housing contains the electronic circuitry of the
sensor which includes an electronic communication
chip and an electronic impact sensor. Potting material
fills the cavity to seal and protect the internal elec-
tronic circuitry and components. The front impact sen-
sors are each connected to the vehicle electrical
system through a dedicated take out and connector of
the right or left headlamp and dash wire harnesses.
The front impact sensors cannot be repaired or
adjusted and, if damaged or faulty, they must be
replaced. If a front impact sensor is faulty, only the
sensor needs to be replaced. If the sensor or the sen-
sor mounting bracket is damaged or faulty, or if
proper tightening torque of the screws that secure
the sensor to the bracket cannot be achieved, the
sensor and bracket unit must be replaced.

WJRESTRAINTS 8O - 23
DRIVER AIRBAG (Continued)

OPERATION
The front impact sensors are electronic accelerom-
eters that sense the rate of vehicle deceleration,
which provides verification of the direction and sever-
ity of an impact. Each sensor also contains an elec-
tronic communication chip that allows the unit to
communicate the sensor status as well as sensor
fault information to the microprocessor in the Airbag
Control Module (ACM). The ACM microprocessor con-
tinuously monitors all of the passive restraint system
electrical circuits to determine the system readiness.
If the ACM detects a monitored system fault, it sets
a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) and controls the
airbag indicator operation accordingly.
The impact sensors each receive battery current
and ground through dedicated left and right sensor
plus and minus circuits from the ACM. The impact
sensors and the ACM communicate by modulating
the voltage in the sensor plus circuit. The hard wired
circuits between the front impact sensors and the
ACM may be diagnosed and tested using conven-
tional diagnostic tools and procedures. However, con-
ventional diagnostic methods will not prove
conclusive in the diagnosis of the ACM or the impact
sensors. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate
means to diagnose the impact sensors, the ACM, and
the electronic message communication between the
sensors and the ACM requires the use of a DRBIIIt
scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic infor-
mation.
REMOVAL
The front and side impact sensors are interchange-
able except that the front impact sensors are serviced
with a right or left mounting bracket, while the side
impact sensors use no mounting bracket. If a front
impact sensor is faulty, but not damaged, the sensor
may be removed from the sensor mounting bracket
and replaced with a side impact sensor. If the front
impact sensor or the sensor mounting bracket are
damaged in any way, or if proper tightening torque of
the screws that secure the sensor to the bracket can-
not be achieved, the front impact sensor and bracket
must be replaced as a unit.
