Description & Operation: Switches

Power windows are operated by means of the control switches integrated in the door modules and by the switches in the rear doors. The switches in the rear doors signal the switch status via 2 lines to the GM (ground signal). The door module for the driver's door, via which all windows can be operated, sends its data via the "P-bus" to the GM and the door module of the front passenger's door. All switches feature 2 switch stages. The window is opened or closed by slightly pressing or pulling back the switch. On releasing the switch the power window drive is switched off immediately. The second switch stage is activated by pressing or pulling beyond the first stage. The power window drive is now in automatic mode and is operated until the window is completely opened or closed. Automatic mode is cancelled by operating the switch once again.
