Electric Windows - Fault Analysis / Window Motor Removal
[n:m3^^

Electric Windows
Description
Power to the window wind circuits is available
when the ignition switch is on and is supplied
through a thermal cut-out to the left and right
window switches. The switches are double pole
plus earth so that the current through a window
motor may be switched in either direction to raise
or lower the window.
DB7 uses frameless door windows which seal
against rubber strips around the body shell door

opening.
To avoid damaging these seals during
door opening, the door glass must be lowered
before the door can be opened. This function is
controlled by the window control units. The units
are mounted on the inside of each door frame and
will sense if a door handle is pulled to open the
door. Before releasing the door lock, the control
unit will drive the window wind motor briefly to
lower the door window glass down until it clears
the window seals. Similarly, after closing a door,
the window motor will be run to raise the door glass
to seat the glass against the body seals.
Fault Analysis Procedure
a) If a window fails to operate, check for fuse failure
and the connectors for poor or open contacts.
b) Check the thermal cut-out by shorting across it and
operating either window. If the windows operate
with the short
ci rcu
it but not without, the cut-out is
faulty.
c) With the ignition on, battery voltage should be
available between the inputterminalsof the switches
and chassis. Operate each switch and ensure that
battery voltage is available between the switch
output terminals and chassis.
d) Measure voltagefrom each switch inputterminalto
the switch earth return terminal. If no voltage is

measured,
the earth return line is open circuit.
e) Measure continuity through the wiring from the
switches to each motor. If continuity is correct,
remove the motor for bench testing.
6.7.04 Door Window Motor
Procedure

1.
Remove the door trim panel and the glass inner
sealing
trim.

Figure!. Window Securing Screws
2. Position the window to gain access to the slider
bracket and glass securing screws.
3. Disconnect the battery earth
lead.

4.
Remove two screws securing the glass to each of
the two slider brackets. Loosen the two screws
securing the glass to the elevator
rail.

6. Slide the elevator rail forwards until the glass
securing screws are opposite the wide opening of
the rail keyhole slots and remove the glass from the
top of the door.
7. Disconnect the window motor multiplug.

Electrical Component Location and Wiring Information in::m3^?
DB7 Electrical Component Location and
Wiring Information
Thefol lowing pages contains electrical component
location and electrical wiring diagrams.
Component Index
The following list details all of the functional
electrical components of the DB7. The list is given
in alphabetical order with component location and
wiring diagram references for each component.
Component Location on the vehicle
To locate a component on the veh
icie,
find its name
in the component index and note the component
location reference.
The component location reference gives the figure
number and item number for each component so
that you can find the component on the following
location diagrams and in the car.
Component Location on the Wiring Diagrams
The wiring diagram reference gives the wiring
diagram number and the location coordinates so
that you can locate the component and its wiring
on the wiring diagrams.
Wiring Diagrams
Each diagram covers a complete loom or section of
a major loom.
Continuations of a loom on another sheet and
connections to other looms are indicated by the
continuation arrow »* and the Sheet Number and
Co-Ordinateswherethecontinuation or connection
is located.
Each connector is illustrated with an end view of
the mating face of the connector. A table beside
each connector gives the pin number, wire colour
and destination of each wire.
Wire Colours
The following key is used to denote wire colours in
the connector wiring tables
B = Black P = Purple G = Green
K = Pink S = Slate LG = Light Green
N = Brown W = White O = Orange
R = Red U = Blue Y = Yellow
Wire Splices
Many wire runs are spliced within the loom
wrapping and additional information is required to
aid in fault analysis. All splices are noted on the
wiring diagrams (e.g. SPL1 = Splice 1). On the
facing page for each wiring diagram, a splice list
gives the splice number and the wire colours and
destinations for each wire coming from the splice.
