My mazda protege5 power windows not working except the driver side. I check the fuse box #12, it is not shorted. What advise could you give me would be appreciated.

Look for a broken wire in the driver door jamb harness.

First, if the driver's window is working, there is no need to waste your time looking for fuses. ALL of the windows are powered by the SAME fuse.

The first thing I recommend checking is the window "lock" switch on the master switch. If it is in the "lock" position, none of the other windows will work (it is designed to do that)

Other than that, you need to check for power and ground at all of the other door switches. The BLUE/BLACK wire at each of the switches should have battery voltage anytime the ignition switch is in the ON position. If they do not, the wire is broken between the splice near the driver's door and the right front door. Both the RED and the GREEN wires at each switch should have continuity to ground anytime the master switch is at rest with the "lock" switch in the unlock position (the lock switch breaks these grounds to "lock" the windows and prevent them from being operated).

Give some more details of the problem.

You will need to check all connections in door. Make sure to have a 12 volt test light, remove door panel and check window switch for power if ok go to motor hold test light to the hot wire to motor, use window switch does test light light up if so motor is bad.

Need help with door panel and testing with pin connector locations go to this site you with the diagrams and step by step diagrams .

check all of your wires with wire tester. maybe they are being shorted out somewhere. Check your fuses to make sure none are blown/bad. Check the light bulbs to make sure they aren;t blown.

If you know where the central fuse box is located, check inside the removable cover; they often have the fuse locations named and shown there.

not sure on this make but many vehicles have a lock out switch (safety feature) that deactivate all power windows except for the driver window. Usually on the driver door or close by

Remove door panel to check wiring to switch and motor
See if motor is getting power through the switch - if so motor is bad
If no power to motor check operation of switch - jump wires to test
if window works bad switch

thanks.

-Both switches (Driver side and passage side) do the same thing ?-If so then there is a bad connector at the motor. Power line or ground.
-But can't open only on 1 switch. Then that switch is worn out.

Good luck

Its a signal wire splice that is under your driver seat carpet.( 4 brown wires)
