Title: WINDOW / GLASS: POWER WINDOW CONTROL SYSTEM (for TMC Made): B231F96; RR-Door P/W Motor Component Internal Failure; 2023 MY Corolla Corolla Hatchback Corolla HV GR Corolla [09/2022 - 11/2022]

DTC

B231F96

RR-Door P/W Motor Component Internal Failure

DESCRIPTION

The main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) communicates with the power window regulator motor assembly RH (for rear RH door) via LIN communication.

This DTC is stored when a power window regulator motor assembly RH (for rear RH door) is malfunctioning, or the ECU built into the power window regulator motor assembly RH (for rear RH door) determines that the fully closed power window position has deviated approximately 20 mm (0.787 in.) or more from the normal position.
