NOTE: The smart junction box (SJB) may also be identified as the generic electronic
module (GEM).
Power Window System - The power window system operates under the control of the accessory delay relay.
The SJB grounds the relay coil to provide power to the power window system.
Power Window Control - The power window system can be operated from the driver window control switch
or from the window control switch located on the passenger door panel. The driver window control switch has 2
modes of operation for the driver power window, manual and auto. The passenger window operates in the
manual mode only.
Manual mode moves the window downward until the switch is released. The driver power window will operate
in the manual mode when the driver window control switch is pressed to the first detent position.
Auto mode provides the one-touch down (OTD) feature for the driver front power window. The OTD function
allows the driver front power window to be completely lowered when the driver window control switch is
pressed to the second detent position and then released. OTD is controlled by the driver window control switch.
The power window system will only operate if:
 the ignition is in the RUN or ACC position.

 the delayed accessory feature is in the active mode.
Quarter Glass - The quarter glass is standard on SuperCab vehicles. The fixed quarter glass is held in place
using nuts and uses urethane adhesive for wind/water sealing.
Back Window Glass - The back window glass is standard plastic and glass laminate safety glass. The back
window glass may be split with a sliding window or a one-piece window.
Windshield Glass - The windshield glass is standard plastic and glass laminate safety glass. The windshield
glass is bonded to the window opening flange with urethane adhesive.
Front Door Glass - The front door glass is standard plastic and laminate safety glass. The front door glass is
lowered and raised manually or with the optional power window controls.

Principles of Operation
Power Window Operation
The power window system receives power from the accessory delay relay. The accessory delay relay receives
fused ignition voltage when the key is in either the RUN or ACC position. When the accessory delay relay is
energized, it supplies power to the master power window control switch.
Power Window Control
The power windows can be operated from the individual window switch located on each door panel. The
passenger power window can be operated from the driver (master) power window switch. The driver side
window has 2 modes of operation: manual and auto. In manual mode, the window control switch will move the
window down until the switch is released.
Auto mode provides one-touch down (OTD) operation for the driver window only. The OTD function moves
the driver window to the full open position when the master power window switch is momentarily pressed and
released.
Inspection & Verification

CAUTION: To avoid rust formation, use extreme care not to scratch the paint or
primer, or otherwise damage the pinch weld during glass removal.
NOTE: Insert the blade into the special tool so that the flat side is against the
glass. This will leave the entire urethane adhesive bead on the pinch weld
and allow a dry fit of the replacement windshield glass.
NOTE: Support the windshield glass as necessary to prevent the glass from
dropping while cutting the urethane adhesive.
9. Insert the special tool at the upper center of the windshield glass and work toward the bottom corners.

INSTALLATION
1. Dry fit the windshield glass on the existing urethane bead on the pinch weld.
 Position the windshield glass on the pinch weld.
 Center the windshield glass in the opening.
 Adjust the windshield glass stop blocks (if equipped) as needed for best fit.
 Make alignment marks with tape or non-staining grease pencil (preferably at the windshield glass
stop blocks, if equipped) on the windshield glass and the body.
2. After the dry-fit alignment, remove the glass from the windshield opening and place on a stable work
surface with the interior side of the glass facing up.
3. Using a clean shop towel, brush or oil-free compressed air, clean the pinch weld area around the existing
urethane. Remove any foreign material or water that may have entered during windshield removal.
WARNING: Repair any corrosion found on the pinch weld. The pinch weld is a
structural component of the vehicle. Corrosion left unrepaired may
reduce the structural integrity of the vehicle. Failure to follow this
instruction may result in serious injury to vehicle occupant(s).
NOTE: Avoid scratching the pinch weld. For minor scratches or exposed metal on
the pinch weld, see the manufacturer's recommendations.
4. Using an appropriate tool, trim the urethane adhesive leaving a 1-2 mm (0.04-0.08 in) base of original
equipment urethane on the pinch weld.

5. If reinstalling the same windshield glass, remove the remaining urethane adhesive from the glass leaving
a thin layer to bond with the new urethane bead.
6. Clean the inside of the glass surface with glass cleaner.
NOTE: Be sure to use the same brand and cure-rate products for the adhesive
and primer. Do not mix different brands of urethane and primer. Refer to
the Material Chart.
NOTE: Sika uses the same black primer for the glass and pinch weld area.
7. If installing a new windshield glass, apply urethane glass primer according to manufacturer's instructions.
Allow at least 6 minutes to dry.
8. Cut the urethane applicator tip to specification.

NOTE: Use either a high-ratio, electric or battery-operated caulk gun that will
apply the urethane with less effort and a continuous bead.
9. Apply urethane adhesive on top of the existing trimmed urethane adhesive bead on the pinch weld. Make
sure that all gaps in the urethane adhesive are smoothed into one continuous bead starting and ending at
the bottom of the windshield near the center.
