Escalade Auto/Express Up Windows

[91RS]

I just spent 10 minutes searching and only found people talking about aftermarket alarm & add-on boxes or relays or something and I am NOT interested at all in that so please don't waste either of our time. I want the factory parts or I'll just not do it.

Can anyone confirm which parts are required to add the Escalade auto/express up windows to a Yukon or early Escalade? I remember seeing the information on here at some point and I know for sure the window switches/door modules and window regulators (or just motors) are needed but I thought I remember seeing the door harnesses are needed but I can't find that thread again.

I see the condescending attitude got you all the help you deserved here

 

[91RS]

By asking a question and stating I wasn't interested in anything other than exactly what I asked about? How is that condescending? I don't need two pages of posts that don't answer the question that was asked.

What exactly was your reason for posting? Probably the same reason other people only posted about aftermarket junk when other people asked about how to do this with factory parts.

@gooffeyguy Didn't we talk about that a few years ago?

I bought door harnesses, switches, and regulators. I think that’s all it is. Not sure if I’ll get them installed this weekend or not.

my guess is you would just need the main door switch that is already programmed and "maybe" the harness, The regulators are not any different otherwise regulators would be a different part number and they are not.

 

[91RS]

There is more to it than just switches. The regulators are definitely different part numbers because the motors are different. They have logic in them to learn the open and closed positions and also for anti-pinch functionality during auto-up. The harnesses are different because the window motor connector is different.

I’m betting you also have to have the BCM because that stuff is programmed into the BCM these days. Not sure if you can have your existing BCM programmed or you’d have to adapt an esky BCM to your ride somehow.

In the Clifford alarm module of our VW, it’s the (aftermarket) regulator module the takes over the factory express down feature and adds new express up & down safety and control settings.

I’ve seen that White Electronic / BT Diesel adds express down and/or down through a BCM mod. My wife’s VW Beetle vert had one touch down and all 4 windows roll up in conjunction with the door lock via the remote with an aftermarket plug / program module in to the OBD port.

Trying to exclude any speculative info in the thread. That said, express up AND down are programmed into our 09 Platinum. I’m not sure whether the window motor control for express up/down is the BCM, in the switch and or harness or if reprogramming the BCM also reprograms the window’s ancillary parts.

My vote would be to pay BT Diesel for the BCM mod and find out what’s needed. Going all in and paying for the service ensures the communication process starts. The company that flashed my ECU for my VW in the UK would not communicate until I paid them. The owner / operator told me (as I suspected) he got no income until he responded to paying inquiries only.

I’m pretty sure the BCM doesn’t have anything to do with it on this body style since the window switches are actually door modules connected to the low speed LAN. In the Kx trucks, absolutely, because those door switches are just switches and are on a LIN bus with the BCM. I don’t see anything about auto up windows on BT Diesel’s site under the 900 BCM programming. I have the switches, harnesses, and regulators so we’ll see what happens. I probably would have put them in already if not for all my sound deadening and I’ll have to pull the speaker wire back through. Maybe I’ll try and do the driver side today.

Keep us posted on the progress with what you learn through this process

Have you browsed Tis2Web to make sure? Take an Esky VIN and have a gander when you have time. The programming may be in the RCDLR.

That won’t help as the newer trucks definitely have different BCM calibrations because of other differences between the early and later trucks. I might be able to plug the harness in and plug in the module and regulator and see if it works, it might make the truck angry because of the other stuff not connected but it might be a good way to test before I start peeling off sound deadener.

well the regulators are the same, that's why I said that, there are no regulator options/rpo's for express up.down, the same regulator fits 07-14

 

[91RS]

I trust GM’s parts catalog before Rock Auto. Even GM Parts Direct shows different regulators for 09-14 Escalade than for the rest of the 900’s.

edit:: my 18 Silverado has express up/down on both sides I thought my Denali did it's only express down there is apparently a specific motor that cardone want $305.00 to rebuild only and others are the same across the board like the regulators, makes no sense

 

[Doubeleive]

anyway let us know what you figure out, at least we know it's not the glass

what is the part number's? gm likes to change part numbers all the time, when you figure it out can you make a list of what is needed?

It's funny you mention glass, I recently found out Escalade front door glass is also different than Tahoe's and Yukon's.

is it sound proof?
