Introduction/Context / This lesson will instruct the student on how to inspect and test motors, switches, relays, connectors, terminals, wires, and control components/modules of power window circuits, and repair or replace as needed. Knowledge of these techniques and the skills required to correct problems associated with this task are necessary for a student to acquire if they wish to compete for high paying, high skilled jobs in a Diesel Repair Facility. Entry level technicians need to be able to perform this task to 100% accuracy. Incorrectly performing this task can lead to an accident or create customer satisfaction issues.

Content/Presentation/Demonstration Outline

Instruct students that if both windows in a truck are inoperative, the power source is a good place to start troubleshooting. If one side works but the other does not, tell students to check the switch, followed by testing voltage at the motor.
Explain that when an electrical failure is suspected to be system wide, such as both windows being inoperative, then the power to the circuit must be established first before any individual component is tested. Have students begin testing for voltage as close to the fuse box as possible, and then work progressively downstream until the open circuit is found. Let them know that it must be assumed that the fuse box is getting power, as all the other systems are normal.
Inform them that when testing a power window motor circuit, keep in mind that the motors are reversible. This means that the wiring connected to the motor does not have a dedicated power and ground assignment. Rather, tell them that the assignment alternates at the control switch, depending on the direction in which the switch is activated.


Applications/Practice

1 / Refer to content


Evaluation and feedback Prior to Testing or Lab Work

1 / Objective 1. / Formative assessment / Instructor will observe students as they practice the procedure to assure correct procedure and safety practices are being followed. A checklist will be utilized to chart student progress on the task. Questioning techniques will be utilized as necessary to demonstrate student comprehension / Adaptations and/or accommodations for special needs students will be added if required.


STUDENT ASSESSMENT:(Assess student progress with performance criteria.)

1 / Objective 1 / Summative assessment / written test questions on stated objective / adaptation and / or accommodations for special needs students will be added if required
IMPACT--Reflection/Analysis of Teaching and Learning: (How did students’ progress in relation to the state objectives? Was the instruction successful? Analyze samples of student work particularly that which is unsatisfactory, for the purpose of planning further instruction.)
REFINEMENT--Lesson Extension and Follow-up: (To be filled in as the lesson is modified during initial planning and/or during the teaching learning process.)
