Left Rear window problem

When I first start the S600 the window works fine. If switch is on for over 5 min the window wont move. I can hear clicking in the door but the motor does not turn. Anybody have a fuse chart to show where the breaker is located for it? I assume there is a relay in the door and that is what I hear click but there is a separte power feed for the motor?

If you hear a clicking in the door you probably have a mechanical failure and not a fuse. You will have to pull the door panel to investigate. I have not done this on a S series but have done many cars over the last 40 years. Not that difficult with a factory manual. Jim

The clicking that you are hearing is a relay. But its built into the door control unit and not available separately. Does the window work from both the front and the rear switch?

Yes.. works from both front and rear switch. After car is powered up for about 5 min. it wont operate any more.. Always works when car is first powered up so I suspect a circuit breaker is tripping out..

The motor gets power and ground from the Door control module. Thats what the clicking is comming from. There is no breaker for the motor just a fuse, which must be good since it works for the first couple minutes. My first guess would be the dcm module, but without any testing I'm just guessing.

There should be a fuse chart with your tool kit by the spare wheel.

its either your lf or lr dcm. probably the lr but the only way to know for sure is to have it tested with an sds. sometimes when the lf goes out, it will take out other things as well. it's definately not a fuse though, since you here clicking.
