CIRCUIT BREAKER
For circuit descriptions and diagrams, refer to 8W-60
- Power Windows in Group 8W - Wiring Diagrams.
(1) Locate the circuit breaker in the junction block.
Pull out the circuit breaker slightly, but be certain
that the circuit breaker terminals still contact the
terminals in the junction block cavities.
(2) Connect the negative lead of a 12-volt DC volt-
meter to a good ground.
(3) With the voltmeter positive lead, check both
terminals of the circuit breaker for battery voltage.
If only one terminal has battery voltage, the circuit
breaker is faulty and must be replaced. If neither ter-
minal has battery voltage, repair the open circuit
from the Power Distribution Center (PDC) as
required. If the circuit breaker checks OK, but no
power windows operate, see Power Window System
in the Diagnosis and Testing section of this group.
POWER WINDOW SWITCH
The Light-Emitting Diode (LED) illumination lamps
for all of the power window and lock switch and bezel
unit switch paddles receive battery current through
the power window circuit breaker in the junction block.
If all of the LEDs are inoperative in both the power
window and lock switch units and the power windows
are inoperative, perform the diagnosis for Power Win-
dow System in this group. If the power windows oper-
ate, but any or all of the LEDs are inoperative, the
power window and lock switch units with the inopera-
tive LED(s) is faulty and must be replaced. For circuit
descriptions and diagrams, refer to 8W-60 - Power
Windows in Group 8W - Wiring Diagrams.
(1) Check the circuit breaker in the junction block.
If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, replace the faulty cir-
cuit breaker.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Check for battery voltage at the circuit breaker in
the junction block. If OK, turn the ignition switch to
the Off position and go to Step 3. If not OK, repair
the circuit to the ignition switch as required. Fig. 1 Power Window Switch Continuity -

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
POWER WINDOW SWITCH
DRIVER SIDE FRONT DOOR
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the trim panel from the inside of the
driver side front door. Refer to Group 23 - Body for
the procedures.
(3) From the back side of the trim panel, remove
the screws that secure the power window and lock
switch unit to the switch bezel in the door trim panel
opening.
(4) Remove the power window and lock switch and
the switch bezel from the door trim panel.
(5) Reverse the removal procedures to install.
