Circuit/System Description

When a switch is pressed on the driver window switch panel, a serial data message is sent to the body control module (BCM). The BCM examines the request and checks for messages from other power window motors which prohibit the window movement. If no prohibitive messages have been received, the BCM will send a serial data message to the passenger window motor or to the appropriate rear window switch which will perform the command as requested.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Battery voltage must be between 9-16 V.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

B316B 00

The BCM has detected the driver right front or left rear or right rear window switch is active for greater than 60 seconds.

B316B 02

The BCM has detected the driver left front window switch is active for greater than 60 seconds.

B317A 02

The BCM has detected the passenger window switch is active for greater than 60 seconds.

B318A 02

The BCM has detected the left rear window switch is active for greater than 60 seconds

B319A 02

The BCM has detected the right rear window switch is active for greater than 60 seconds

B316B 39, B317A 39, B318A 39, B319A 39

The BCM has detected an internal failure within the affected door switch

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The affected power window will malfunction.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC


B316B 00, B316B 02, B317A 02, B318A 02, B319A 02

The DTC will be current for as long as the fault is present.

The DTC will change from current to history when the fault is no longer present.

A history DTC will clear after 100 consecutive ignition cycles if the condition for the malfunction is no longer present.


B316B 39, B317A 39, B318A 39, B319A 39

If the DTC is current, the affected window switch must be replaced before the DTC can be cleared.

Circuit/System Verification


1. Ignition ON, verify that each of the scan tool parameters listed below are Inactive:

Front Passenger Main Control Down Switch

Front Passenger Main Control Express Switch

Front Passenger Main Control Up Switch

Left Rear Window Main Control Down Switch

Left Rear Window Main Control Express Switch

Left Rear Window Main Control Up Switch

Right Rear Window Main Control Down Switch

Right Rear Window Main Control Express Switch

Right Rear Window Main Control Up Switch

2. If any of the parameters are always Active, replace the S79D window switch-driver.

3. Verify that the scan tool Left Rear Window Switch at Door parameter is Inactive.

4. If not the specified value, replace the S79LR window switch-left rear.

5. Verify that the scan tool Right Rear Window Switch at Door parameter is Inactive.

6. If not the specified value, replace the S79RR window switch-right rear.

7. Command the driver window to go UP, DOWN, express UP and express DOWN by using the S79D window switch-driver. The driver window should perform the UP, DOWN, express UP and express DOWN functions.

8. If the driver window does not perform as specified, refer to Driver Window Switch Malfunction.

9. Command the passenger window to go UP, DOWN, express UP and express DOWN by using the S79P window switch-passenger. The passenger window should perform the UP, DOWN, express UP and express DOWN function.

10. If the passenger window does not perform as specified, refer to Passenger Window Malfunction.


Circuit/System Testing


Driver Window Switch Malfunction

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S79D window switch-driver.

2. Ignition ON, verify that the scan tool Driver Window Main Control Down Switch parameter is Inactive.

3. If not the specifed value, test the control circuit terminal 3 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the M74D window motor-driver.

4. Verify that the scan tool Driver Window Main Control Up Switch parameter is Inactive.

5. If not the specifed value, test the control circuit terminal 6 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the M74D window motor-driver.

6. Verify that the scan tool Driver Window Main Control Express Switch parameter is Inactive.

7. If not the specifed value, test the control circuit terminal 2 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the M74D window motor-driver.

8. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the S79D window switch-driver.



Passenger Switch Window Malfunction

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S79P window switch-passenger.

2. Ignition ON, test for greater than 10V between the signal circuit terminal listed below and ground:

Signal circuit terminal 6

Signal circuit terminal 7

Signal circuit terminal 8

3. If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the M74P window motor-passenger.

4. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the S79P window switch-passenger.
