Power Window Operating Current Check

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Remove the power window fuse to check that it is normal, and connect a multimeter as shown in the illustration.
  2. Raise a door window glass with the power window switch to measure the current during operation.

    Standard value: 7 A or less [Power supply voltage 14.5 ± 0.5V at 25°C (77°F)] 

    NOTE: If the power supply voltage does not meet the standard value, check and repair the generator and the battery. Then carry out this check again.
