Is the button stuck ?

The master switch connector does have circuits that have power on them. The Master switch is not directly connected to the window motors. The switch sends a signal to the Front Electronic Module and the module controls operation of the motor on the driver side. The passenger door window motor is controlled by a different module

I think your car has adjusting screws around the light housing. First find a level garage floor or somewhere with a level floor. If you can, stop the car about ten feet from the wall. Cut strips of black electrical tape. Put one piece in a horizontal position across the center of the light. It should be parralell to the floor. Take another piece of tape and locate it in the center or the light so it is perpendicular to the floor. Repeat on other lens. Turn out all room lights and turn on the head lights. Using the adjusting screws around the headlight (usually 3) raise or lower as needed. When I worked in a garage in the sixties the lens on car were close to the same and we had a level with a suction cup that could be attached to the lens face. The lights today vary a lot from car to car so the tape is a pretty good alternative. That or take the car to a garage. Good luck. I just did my 2002 Grand Prix because I replaced the cloudy lens housings and it took me three times to get it right but when I work for my self I'm working for free.

The first thing to do is check the brake lights, if they don't work the shifter lock will not release the shifter from park. The common problem on this model is the connector at the brake light switch is defective due to broken wires inside the plastic outer insulator.

If you cannot move the gearshift lever out of P (Park) with ignition inthe RUN position and the brake pedal depressed:1. Apply the parking brake, turn ignition key to LOCK, then remove thekey.2. Insert the key and turn it to OFF. Apply the brake pedal and shift to N(Neutral). This allows the automatic transmission shift lever to bemoved from the P (Park) position without the brake pedaldepressed.3. Start the vehicle.If it is necessary to use the above procedure to move the gearshift lever,it is possible that a fuse has blown or the vehicle's brakelamps are notoperating properly.

You do not have oneThe fluid level is checked at 180 degrees or more,by removing the 1/4" pipe plug in the center of thetrans pan drain plug, with a T30 Torx Bit, I think it isIf you were to remove the drain plug some day, to drain the fluid, you would see a tube extending up from itThat tube determines the fluid level,as any extra drains outYou need a special plastic container to blow the fluid inI don't use the hole I'm referring to, to fill it,you canI remove the tail housing 3/8" pipe plug & blow thefluid in there
