DIY - Automotive Power Window Systems Schematic Diagnosis

Introduction 2 lectures 04:46 Basic Window Motor Operation preview A simple Window Motor Schematic is compared to a bulb circuit schematic. The motor circuit is drawn two ways showing how reversing polarity will make the motor spin in the opposite direction. Demo - Window Motor - Reversing Polarity A Live Demonstration of a window motor in a simple circuit. The motor spins clockwise at first and then when Power and Ground is reversed, the window motor spins the other direction.

Power Window Schematics 5 lectures 13:44 Power Window Schematic - Identifying Components The Window Schematic can have a good number of components and many switches so the windows can operate in two directions as well as from two locations. This video explains the components and their purpose. Multiple Switches to Complicate Things This lesson shows how by design there are parts of the schematic connected to power an other parts connected to ground in the "at rest" position of the switches. This allows for the movement of one switch to the up or down position to create the needed power, load and ground path to operate. Many Scenarios on One Picture This complex window schematic has 14 different power, load, and ground scenarios that can be utilized to make the various windows move up or down. A few of them are highlighted and explained in this lesson. Highlighting Challenge - LR from LR Switch Highlighting Power, Load, and Ground Challenge for Operating the left rear window motor from the left rear window switch. Download the schematic from the additional resources and highlight two pictures. One for the window going down and the other for the window going up.

Diagnosis and Testing. 5 lectures 29:09 Diagnosis Without Wasting Steps Every time you make a measurement or make a test, you need to get a result that helps you narrow down the possible faults. If you learn nothing new after making a test, then you are just wasting your time. Let me explain further and show you what I mean. Reverse Diagnosis - What Would Cause This? Improve Your Understanding of Power Window Schematics with this Reverse Diagnosis Challenge.
