Power Windows: 50
50-PASSENGER WINDOW HALL EFFECT FAILURE
For a complete wiring diagram Consult Diagrams/Electrical
- When Monitored:
Whenever the passenger window is operating.
- Set Condition:
The hall effect sensor, in the window motor, sends an alternating signal (open/closed) to the BCM whenever the motor is running. When there is no hall effect signal to the BCM from the window motor, this code will set.
Diagnostic Test
1. DTC PRESENT
NOTE: If there are any other Passenger Power Window DTC's present, diagnose those DTC's before proceeding with this code.

Does the test light illuminate brightly when the switch is pressed?
Yes
- Go To 9
No
- Go To 13
9. (Q112) PASSENGER WINDOW UP RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN
Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (Q112) Passenger Window Up Relay Output circuit.
Press the window switch to the Up position and observe the test light.
Does the test light illuminate brightly when the switch is pressed?
Yes
- Go To 10
No
- Go To 12
10. (Z971) PASSENGER WINDOW UP RELAY GROUND OPEN
Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12 volts, check the (Z971) Ground circuit by probing the (Q112) Passenger Window Up Relay Output circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go To 11
No
- Remove the Up relay and check both of the (Z971) Window Up Relay Ground circuits. Repair as necessary. If the ground circuits are good, replace the Passenger Window Up Relay.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test
11. (Z971) PASSENGER WINDOW DOWN RELAY GROUND OPEN
Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12 volts, check the (Z971) Ground circuit by probing the (Q122) Passenger Window Down Relay Output circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Test Complete.
