1. Install a scan tool.
2. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
3. With the scan tool, observe the appropriate Driver LF, LR, RF, or RR Window Switch parameters in the driver door switch assembly (DDSA) data list.
4. Using the appropriate window switch on the DDSA, attempt to operate the inoperative window to the express up position.

Did the parameter change from the Idle state to the Express Up state?
