COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM

If the front passenger's or rear power window does 
not work by means of the respective power window 
sub switch, the power window sub switch or the 
power window regulator motor may be defective.

POSSIBLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of the front power window sub switch 

(RH) <LH drive vehicles>, front power window 
sub switch (LH) <RH drive vehicles>, power win-
dow sub switch (rear: RH) or power window sub 
switch (rear: LH)

• Malfunction of the front power window regulator 

motor (RH) <LH drive vehicles>, front power win-
dow regulator motor (LH) <RH drive vehicles>, 
power window regulator motor (rear: RH) or 
power window regulator motor (rear: LH)

• Damaged harness wires and connectors

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

Step 1. Check the power window main switch.
Check that the power window lock switch is turned 
off.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 2.

NO : 

Turn off the power window lock switch.

Step 2. Determine a trouble spot.

Q: Which power window does not work?

Front passenger's door <LH drive vehicles> : 

Go 

to Step 3.

Front passenger's door <RH drive vehicles> : 

Go 

to Step 12.

Rear right door : 

Go to Step 21.

Rear left door : 

Go to Step 30.

Step 3. Connector check: E-14 power window 
sub switch (front) connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 4.

NO : 

Repair the connector.

Step 4. Resistance measurement at E-14 power 
window sub switch (front) connector

(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the 

wiring harness side.

(2) Resistance between E-14 power window sub 

switch (front) connector terminal 1 and body 
earth

OK: 2

Ω or less

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 6.

NO : 

Go to Step 5.

Step 5. Check the wiring harness from E-14 
power window sub switch (front) connector 
terminal No.1 to body earth.

NOTE: 

Prior to the wiring harness inspection, check interme-
diate connector C-110, and repair if necessary.

• Check the earth wires for open circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

The trouble can be an intermittent 

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00, How to 
Cope with Intermittent Malfunction 

P.00-5

).

NO : 

Repair the wiring harness.

Step 6. Voltage measurement at E-14 power 
window sub switch (front) connector

(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the 

wiring harness side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

(3) Voltage between E-14 power window sub switch 

(front) connector terminal 4 and body earth

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 9.

NO : 

Go to Step 7.

Step 7. Connector check: C-224 power window 
relay connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 8.

NO : 

Repair the connector.

Step 8. Check the wiring harness from E-14 
power window sub switch (front) connector 
terminal No.4 to C-224 power window relay 
connector terminal No.4.

NOTE: 

Prior to the wiring harness inspection, check interme-
diate connectors C-110 and junction block connector 
C-211, and repair if necessary.

• Check the power supply line for open circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

The trouble can be an intermittent 

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00, How to 
Cope with Intermittent Malfunction 

P.00-5

).

NO : 

Repair the wiring harness.

Step 9. Connector check: E-11 front power 
window regulator motor (RH) connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 10.

NO : 

Repair the connector.

Step 10. Check the wiring harness from E-11 
front power window regulator motor (RH) 
connector terminal Nos.1 and 4 to E-14 front 
power window sub switch (RH) connector 
terminal Nos.5 and 7.

• Check the input and output lines for open or short 

circuit.
