WINDSHIELD / WINDOWGLASS: POWER WINDOW CONTROL SYSTEM: B2311: Driver Door Motor Malfunction
B2311 - Driver Door Motor Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The portion of the power window control system that is located in the driver door consists of a power window master switch, regulator, and a motor with an integrated ECU. The driver door power window regulator motor is controlled by the ECU when the power window master switch is operated (models with jam protection).

DTC B2311 is set when the ECU for the driver door power window regulator motor assembly malfunctions.

NOTICE:
The power window control system uses a serial communication protocol (LIN) to communicate with the main body ECU. Inspect the communication function by following HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING. Troubleshoot the power window control system after confirming that the communication system is functioning properly.

HINT
* Initialization is required only when the power window regulator motor is replaced. However, replacing the motor may cause the motor gear to be engaged in a different position. This can cause a difference to exist between the current door glass position and the position memorized in the ECU. In this case, the jam protection function may work improperly. Return the system to the pre-initialized condition and reinitialize the system.
* To return the system to the pre-initialized condition:
Disconnect the power window regulator motor connector during power window operation. This will return the motor to the pre-initialized condition.

NG -- REPLACE POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MOTOR ASSEMBLY (for Driver Side) Removal
OK -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK WHETHER PARTS HAVE BEEN INSTALLED CORRECTLY

(a) Check that the power window components (on the driver side) are installed correctly.

OK:

Power window components (on driver side) are installed correctly.

When the power window components are installed correctly, the problem has been caused by battery disconnection while the ignition switch is on (IG), improper installation of the power window components or the motor being overheated.

NG -- INSTALL PARTS CORRECTLY
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. CHECK DTC OUTPUT

(a) Turn the ignition switch off.

(b) Wait for at least 10 seconds, and then turn the ignition switch on (IG).

(c) Check whether the DTC output recurs.
