resistance in the grid line as the probe is moved from the battery positive
bus wire to the ground bus wire. The test lamp brilliance may vary from
one window to another.
4. Move the test lamp probe from zone 5 to zone 1 along each grid line.
If the test lamp shows full brilliance at both ends of the grid lines, inspect for an open or poor
connection in the ground circuit of the rear window defogger grid. Refer to Testing for
Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs .

Circuit/System Description
The driver and passenger door lock and side window switches are integrated control module switch assemblies.
When a power window switch is activated in the up or down positions the Driver Door Switch (DDS) supplies
power and ground to the window motor control circuits to drive the window motor in the required direction.
Prior to activating a power window motor the DDS will supply the control circuit with a low current bias
voltage in order to determine that a short to ground condition does not exist and during window motor operation
the DDS continues to monitor the motor current to verify proper window motor operation.

Repair Procedures

Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure.
Circuit/System Description
The rear passenger power window switches are supplied battery voltage through 25A circuit breakers in the IP
fuse panel. The rear door window switch up and down relays control power and ground to the window motors
through the motor control circuits. The rear window switch relays can be energized by the integrated rocker
switch or by the BCM through the up and down signal circuits. While a rear window switch is in an inactive
state both of the window motor control circuits are grounded through the up and down relays. When an up or
down relay is energized the battery supply circuit is closed to the corresponding motor control circuit while the
other control circuit remains grounded through the de-energized relay. The BCM supplies the rocker switches
with accessory/RAP voltage through the lockout control circuit while the lockout function is inactive. The
supply side of all the window up and down relays receive voltage through the battery voltage supply circuit and
the LT DOOR or RT DOOR circuit breakers respectively. The rear passenger power windows can also be
operated from the DDS through a GMLAN message to the BCM. The rear passenger window switches on the
DDS have 2 positions UP and Down their position is a direct input into the DDS. When the BCM receives a
command to operate a rear window up or down the appropriate signal circuit is used to energize the up or down
relay in the rear door window switch.

The driver and passenger door lock and side window switches are integrated control module switch assemblies.
The DDS driver and front passenger window switches are normally open, 3 position rocker type switches, with
detents for up, down, and express down. The DDS rear passenger window switches are normally open, 2
position rocker type switches, with detents for up and down. The DDS rear window lockout switch is a push
button type switch that provides an active signal to the DDS whenever pressed. Whenever the rear window
lockout switch is pressed the DDS will activate or deactivate the rear window lockout function depending on
the current state, and illuminate the switch indicator whenever the function is active.
The passenger door switch (PDS) contains a single power window switch that is an integral component. Closing
of this normally open, rocker switch provides the PDS with a request for the front passenger power window
operation. The switch for the front passenger window has 3 positions UP, Down and Express Down. Each of
these switch positions is a direct input to the PDS.
The rear passenger door power window switches are normally open, 2 position rocker type switches, with
detents for up and down. Each switch incorporates up and down window motor relays that can be energized by
the rocker switch or through BCM control circuits.
The switch for the driver power window has 3 positions UP, Down and Express Down and its position is a
direct input into the driver door switch (DDS). Upon receiving a request for power window operation (switch
activation), the DDS supplies voltage to the power window motor left front up or down circuit and grounds the
opposite and the power window motor runs to move the window up or down.
The switch for the front passenger power window has 3 positions UP, Down and Express Down, and its position
is a direct input into the passenger door switch (PDS). Upon receiving a request for power window operation
(switch activation), the PDS supplies voltage to the power window motor right front up or down circuit and
grounds the opposite and the power window motor runs to drive the window up or down.
The front passenger power window can also be operated from the DDS. The front passenger window switch on
the DDS has 3 positions UP, Down and Express Down and its position is a direct input into the DDS. Upon
receiving a request for front passenger power window operation, the DDS transmits a GMLAN message
indicating the changed switch position. When the PDS receives this message, the PDS supplies voltage to the
power window motor right front up or down circuit and grounds the opposite and the power window motor runs
to move the window up or down.
The rear passenger power window switches are supplied battery voltage through 25A circuit breakers in the IP
fuse panel. The rear door window switch up and down relays control power and ground to the window motors
through the motor control circuits. The rear window switch relays can be energized by the integrated rocker
switch or by the BCM through the up and down signal circuits. While a rear window switch is in an inactive
state both of the window motor control circuits are grounded through the up and down relays. When an up or
down relay is energized the battery supply circuit is closed to the corresponding motor control circuit while the

2007 Cadillac Escalade
2007 ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT Fixed and Moveable Windows - Avalanche, Escalade, Suburban, Tahoe & Yukon
other control circuit remains grounded through the de-energized relay. The BCM supplies the rocker switches
with accessory/RAP voltage through the lockout control circuit while the lockout function is inactive. The
supply side of all the window up and down relays receive voltage through the battery voltage supply circuit and
the LT DOOR or RT DOOR circuit breakers respectively.
The rear passenger power windows can also be operated from the DDS through a GMLAN message to the
BCM. The rear passenger window switches on the DDS have 2 positions UP and Down their position is a direct
input into the DDS. When the BCM receives a command to operate a rear window up or down the appropriate
signal circuit is used to energize the up or down relay in the rear door window switch.
The rear window lockout function is operated from the DDS through a GMLAN message to the BCM. When
the BCM receives an active lockout command, the rear door power window switches are disabled. The lockout
control circuit from the BCM supplies the accessory/RAP voltage to the rear window switches while the lockout
function is inactive and removes the supply voltage to activate the function. Once activated, the lockout feature
will remain in effect until the ignition switch is cycled or the DDS receives another power window lockout
switch activation.
When you depress the rear defogger switch, voltage is supplied to the DEFOG relay coil and the HVAC control
module also illuminates the rear window defogger indicator. Battery positive voltage is supplied at all times to
the DEFOG relay switched input and the DEFOG relay coil is always grounded. This allows battery positive
voltage from the relay switched input through the switch contacts and out the relay switched output to the rear
window defogger. The HVAC module also sends a message to the driver door module (DDM) and passenger
