Power Windows Hello...have 2001 Grand Prix 4dr SE. Both of the right side power windows stopped working. Neither the driver master control switches or the single switch to both windows do not work. What could the problem be? I have not noticed any other electrical issues other that the windows not working. Please comment.

    We have the same year and model and the window behind the driver side window does the same thing. It doesn't do it all the time so we were wondering if this might be the same solution. Have to give it a try.

    2001 pontiac window motors working but the driver side and passenger side windows will not go down only the back windows with the driver side switch or the back window switches

    window motors working on the driver and passenger side but not going down rear windows are ok but the switch on the driver side for the passanger window does not work but you can hear the motor working on the passanger side when you use the passenger side switch.

I assume the fuses have been verified to be OK. As long as they are, it seems that either the window regulators in those doors have failed, or there is a break in the wiring between the doors. The most likely problem after fuses though is that the driver's door switches themselves have failed. Power is routed through the driver's door before being distributed to the other doors. If the driver's door switch module has died, then the other switches for those windows won't work either. A replacement driver's switch pod is easy to swap and runs around $10 at a salvage yard - I'd try that after verifying that the fusing is all OK.

1991 Pontiac Grand Prix SE. I need the fuse box diagrams please. I bought the car used and it didn't come with any of the covers.

Question edited for clarity.
Questions moved to a better category.

If all of those are blown, you are in for a whole lot of heartache! Cigarette lighter overloaded, easy fix. Blower motor, probably the resistor, fairly easy fix if you can get to it. Windows, relays, or if only on drivers side, broken wires where door meets frame.

Right rear window does not work

All power originates/passes through the master control switch on the drivers door panel. Start by popping the drivers switch and with key on check power going to & through the master switch especially the switch that raises/lowers the window in question. Surely you've done checked the fuses and or relays? Hope this helps.

1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo TSI, Passenger side windows do not work from master switch on drivers door. Both driver side windows work from master switch on drivers side. Passenger side windows do work...

It has to be the switch or the wiring, right? So pull out the switch and probe the back with a volt meter to see if power is coming out of the switch. If yes, trace the wires to the doors.

Windows will not work from drivers side master switch or the single door switches lock not working also remote mirrors dont 2001 jeep grand cherokee ltd

First thing to check is the fuses. Look underneath the drivers side steering wheel (to the left) for a covered fuse box. Remove the cover and find the fuse that controls the locks and windows and mirrors (two-three separate fuses) Pull them out "one by one" and see if they are burned out. If they are, replace them with the correct number fuse.If it is not the fuse, the door lock actuator has failed (for the door locks) or the master switch that controls the locks is bad. Go to your local junk yard and find a replacement for cheap

Power Windows

It sounds like the MAIN SWITCH on the driver's side "master power window control panel" is OFF or defective.
