Rear Windows

[notinparadise]

Master switch has failed most likely. The lockout switch would disable all 3 other windows. The fact that the front passenger window still works and both rears quit working at the same time points me at the master switch. There are tests you can do with jumper wires/power probe but that's up to you. The switches fail often due to the driver being a smoker and on rainy days leaving his window down to smoke. The rain gets in the master switch and slowly corrodes the internal contacts.

The master switch is the main switch on the drivers side front door? Would everything work on the switch besides the rear windows? I am at a loss. How do I test the switch? I don't like to buy parts unless I know the issue, but Im not sure what else it could be?

Okay, I took both rear door panels off and smacked the motors with a hammer a few times and BAM they work. The previous owner told me he did not have anyone in the back seat for the last 10 years. I read somewhere on a forum the motors will not release after sitting that long (IDK something about copper or windings?!). Everything is back on track and working as new!! Simple fix a flathead, 9/32 nut driver and a hammer...
