6. If there is no continuity, repair an open or high resistance in the wires. If the wire harness is OK, the driver's power window motor is faulty; replace the driver's door regulator (see FRONT DOOR GLASS AND REGULATOR REPLACEMENT ).

   Pulser Test 

7. Check for continuity between driver's power window motor 6P connector terminal No. 2 and body ground. There should be continuity.
   • If there is continuity, go to step 8.
