release must be held depressed until the emboss-
ment on the female connector is locked in the
hole of the motor connector.
The power window electrical circuit is pro-
tected by a 40-ampere circuit breaker. Circuit
breaker is located in fuse block.
It may be necessary to use only one or all of
the procedures outlined to locate an electrical
failure in the circuit. If the location of the failure
is evident, follow only the steps required to check
the affected wire or component. If the location of
the failure is not evident, follow the procedure as
outlined. Be sure to check the harness connectors
beneath the outer ends of the instrument panel for
proper engagement.
97. Power Window Circuit
Checking Procedures
Failures in a circuit are usually caused by
short circuits or open circuits. Open circuits
are usually caused by breaks in the wiring, faulty
connection or mechanical failure in a component
such as a switch or circuit breaker. Short cir-
cuits are usually caused by wires from different
components of the circuit contacting one another,
or by a wire or component grounding to the metal
of the body due to a screw through the wire, and
insulation cut through by sharp metal edge.
a. Checking Feed Circuit Continuity
at Circuit Breaker
1. Connect one light tester lead to battery side
of circuit breaker and ground other lead. If tester
does not light, there is an open or short circuit
in feed circuit to breaker.
2. To check circuit breaker, disconnect output
feed wire (the wire opposite power source feed to
breaker) from breaker and with light tester, check
terminal from which wire was disconnected. If
tester d o e s not light, circuit breaker is
inoperative.
