Diagnostic procedure

The diagnostic trouble code is generated if there is an internal malfunction in the relay or if ground is missing on pin 5 in the relay base.


- Check ground for pin 5 in relay base.

- Try moving the relay to the position for the left front window.

- Activate the relay with the button for the left rear window on the centre console.

- If the left front window raises or lowers, the problem is most likely in the wiring harness


Checking wiring harness

Intermittent faults can exist during temporary short circuits and open circuits. Wiggle the wiring harness at several points and in different directions to discover problems in the wiring harness and connectors. Observe the multimeter, diagnostic tool or the test lamp during checking.
