Power Window Switch

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Dodge Dakota. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

On Conventional Cab and Club Cab models, the power windows are controlled by 2-way switches integral to the power window and lock switch bezel on the passenger side and the Driver Door Module (DDM) on the driver side in the trim panel of each front door. A second power window switch in the DDM allows the driver to control the passenger window.

On Quad Cab models, the power windows are controlled by 4 2-way switches and a power window lockout switch that are integral to the DDM on the driver side front door trim panel. Additionally, each of the passenger doors has a single-gang 2-way power window switch mounted in a bezel on their respective door trim panels.

On all models, the power window switch for the driver side front door window has an AUTO label on it. This switch has a second detent position beyond the normal Down position that provides an automatic one-touch window down feature. This feature is controlled by an electronic circuit and a relay that are integral to the DDM.

The power window switches control the battery and ground feeds to the power window motors. All of the passenger door power window switches receive their battery and ground feeds through the circuitry of the DDM. When the power window lockout switch is in the LOCK position, the battery feed for the individual passenger door power window switches is interrupted.

A Light-Emitting Diode (LED) in the paddle of each switch is illuminated whenever the ignition switch is in the ON position. However, the LEDs for the passenger power window switch(es) are extinguished whenever the driver selects the LOCK position with the power window lockout switch.
