ABSTRACT:
With an automobile having electric power windows a power drive control circuit includes a solid state on-off power solid state device such as a PNP transistor with a moisture content sensor element interconnecting two electrodes of the solid state device (the emitter and base of the PNP transistor). When the moisture content sensor element becomes moistened as by rain falling thereon its electric through path resistance lessens to thereby achieve bias to conductive state for the PNP transistor through conductive state to activate the window motor drive and close any vehicle windows from the open state.
