My power windows worked fine after I replaced the regulators. Then I removed the tint from the front windows using warm soapy water and a razor. Ever since, the driver's master switch will lower all windows but will not raise any of them except the driver's. The individual switches work fine.

I've taken out the master switch and cleaned it and re-soldered some of the joints. What else could be the problem?

Thanks.

 

I'd think that the master switch as given up the ghost (no pun intended) on you, IMO. If there was someone close by to you that owns a 3rd gen, I'd say slap that puppy in THEIR car and see if it works for starters.

 

I'd check to make sure all the feed wires are working.
Both ground and power.

 

Try some lube along the window path. I have used Lithium spray...but whatever u use make sure that it won't eat the Rubber. Maybe the residual junk from the tint has fouled it.

 

Thanks, I cleaned it again tonight, but I forgot to test it out since I was also fixing my headlight switch...at least my high beam works now

I should have replaced it with the one from my wrecked car knowing that something else in this car would go wrong.

 

I have this exact same problem!!!! my master switch will lower all windows.. but only raise the front driver side... individual switches work fine.. except the front passenger side sometimes wont raise it.. ghostmax have u figured out the problem?? cuz this is definately getting on my nerves! i've taken apart the master switch assembly and checked all the wires.. the voltage on the switch board is a little strange.. but i still don't know whats causing the problem.. ghostmax.. anybody... help?!?!?!!

 

ghostmax i PM'd you

 

my problem is intermittent because now it's working :scratches his head:

 

are you serious?? oh man.. mine are still not working.. im guessing its the main control switch on the driver side.. but to replace that will run about 200+ cdn before taxes.. and im kind of iffy since im not even sure if thats the problem

 

well i have had the prob and fixed it is the master power window module either hit the dealership for a even $100 or junk yard and pray for some more life!!!

 

thanks a lot jkmay01! finally i'll have working windows!!!

 

good job man!!! glad to help by the way how much did it run u?

 

mattysmax,

the problem is the master window switch. i went to one of the yards here and found a brand new switch! it still has all the white lettering on it, and the auto down works too. got it for $20. and a door lock timer too ($20). good day.

good luck with yours, but i'm like 99% sure that's the problem.

 

thanks guys! i went by the dealership and got a brand new one.. a local wrecker had one off a 92.. but i didnt wanna risk running into the same problem as its basically as old as mine was! the damn little thing set me back about $200 CDN.. you are damn lucky ghostmax to have found a new one for 20bux!!! haha but at least my windows work.. but u guys will never believe this.. turns out my front passenger side switch packed it in too.. aint that a b*tch and a half!! anyways the rears work now and im replacing the front passenger switch tomorrow.. i wonder how much it'll cost me this time!.. maybe they'll give me a discount for coming back again hahaha.. anyways thanks again
