U0224Lost Communication With Door Window Motor C

  • Generic OBD-II code · Network
How the car detects it
U0224 means door window motor C no longer reports in; GM's PIT5981B names it among the four window motor codes of its 2021–2025 full-size SUVs. Inside such a motor sits more than a driver stage: NXP's AN3147 reference counts Hall pulses to track glass position, detects pinching or stall and reports chip status such as overvoltage or overtemperature to the LIN master. The anti-pinch logic has to meet FMVSS 118, which permits automatic closing only if the glass reverses before it squeezes a test rod with 100 N or more. With the motor silent, the master sees neither position nor protection status, so functions built on them, such as one-touch closing, are generally unavailable. No MIL.
