Driver Window Issue
My driver door window will not roll down. I press the button and I hear no sound form the motor; nothing happens. There were no signs of any trouble up until that point; every thing was working great and then nothing. Is this most likely a motor issue, fuse issue, or something else I don't know about? What can I do to diagnose?
Any help/advice is appreciated. |

UPDATE:
When I remove the window control panel from the driver door arm rest the window works. When I hold it in my hand it will intermittently work…seems like having it get jostled around a little bit gets it going. Once I put it back in the arm rest where it belongs the window no longer goes up or down. All other 3 windows work with out problem. I see there is a circuit board inside this panel and I'm wondering if there is a short something. Is it common for them to go bad? |

From your description the Power Window Master Switch is at fault or the connections to it. If it works at all it’s not likely a motor, mechanical, or fuse problem.
The Service Manual has some troubleshooting info for this but is rather involved. After closely inspecting the connectors/connections to the Master Switch I would consider changing out the Switch Assy. Tim has a Master Switch Assy. for $120. This “Shot Gun” approach may seem expensive but probably less then what a Dealer would charge as a first course of action. |

Found the Problem
Discovered the problem was a soldered connection between two wires that went bad. My guess is it's the connection for my security module that rolls up my windows when I arm my vehicle, but not 100% sure. I would have thought it would have affected all my windows if it were that, but who knows.
Good news is I found the problem and I don't have to spend $100 on a new control module. |

Does anyone know what the part number is for the unit that sits under the armrest on the driver door that controls the power window master switch. Having a tough time finding it here.
