1. |
Check the door control module software number.
If the software number is in accordance with those specified above or newer : 4D, M04 : Carry out checking and fault diagnosis M03-M04, see below. 4D/5D M05-M06 : Proceed to step 2. CV : Carry out the procedure for CV, see below. If the software number is older than those specified above : Connect Tech 2 (version 126.000 or later) and perform the update. The software is available on IRIS from and including TIS2000 edition 2006-3 update 1. Add the door control module with Tech 2 under the menu, All - Add/Remove. Check the function. 4D, M04 : If the fault remains, carry out checking and fault diagnosis M03-M04, see below. 4D/5D M05-M06 : If the fault remains proceed to step 2. CV : If the fault remains, carry out the procedure for CV, see below. If the fault is rectified then no additional steps are necessary. |
2. |
Raise and lower the window several times. If the pinch protection deploys each time the window is raised, proceed to step 8. If the pinch protection deploys sporadically, proceed to step 3.
|
3. |
If the pinch protection deploys while raising from the bottom position, proceed to step 4. If the pinch protection deploys during raising following lowering, but not to the bottom position, proceed to step 6.
|
4. |
Perform the adaptation test. Start the test in Tech 2 under Body - Power Windows - Driver's door/Passenger door - Miscellaneous - Adaptation test window system.
The windows will now be lowered and raised 10 times in order to test the adaptation performance and to read the clamping forces. The test is now complete. |
5. |
If the test is OK, proceed to step 17.
In the event of error messages, proceed to step 5a. |
5.a. |
Error message: "Slow mechanical system". Max. clamping force is higher than 70, the window runs slowly.
Check the mechanical system in accordance with steps 10-16. Use the read value "Position of max. force (mm)" in order to locate the problem area. Check the adjustments using the read values. Then proceed to step 17. |
5.b. |
Error message: "Mechanical problem, adjust window lift/window seal".
Check the mechanical system in accordance with steps 10-16. Check the adjustments using the read values. Then proceed to step 17. |
5.c. |
Error message: "Poor adaptation performance". Adaptation approved less than 8 out of 10 times. The system cannot adapt itself.
Carry out the programming of the window in accordance with step 17 and repeat the adaptation test. Note that several messages may arise at the same time. In which case carry out the mechanical fault diagnosis first. |
6. |
Carry out the Window opening/Closing test. Start the test in Tech 2 under "Body - Power Windows - Driver's door/Passenger door - Miscellaneous - Window opening/Closing test.
The test is used to check whether the window is unsteady during the change of direction which creates the so-called "drawer effect". Tech 2 opens the window to the selected opening point and closes it again. Start the test, open 1/3, 1/2 and 2/3. If the test is OK, proceed to step 17. In the event of error messages, proceed to step 7. |
7. |
Error message: "Check/adjust window anchorage point/window lift". The difference in clamping force for the first 20 mm is higher than 20, check the window anchorage point/window lift.
Carry out step 6 again and check the improvements. |
8. |
Read out the following read values in Tech 2 under Read Values - Advanced, miscellaneous:
|
8.a. |
False pinch protection activation during whole cycle
: Lower the window to the bottom. Activate "Express up" and check the read values following pinch protection activation.
Check the mechanics in accordance with steps 10-17. Use "Position of max. force" to locate the problem area. |
8.b. |
False pinch protection activation at turning centre of window
: Lower the window, stop and raise it before it has reached the bottom position. Read off the values following pinch protection activation.
Check the window anchorage point if "Force difference first 20 mm" is higher than 20. In the event of a value above 20, carry out step 14. |
9. |
Check the improvements.
|
10. |
