Solution
1. Preparation
  • Gather tools and parts needed for the repair.
  • Ensure the vehicle is parked on a flat surface and the ignition is off.
  • Disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent electrical shock.
2. Inspect and Replace Fuse
  • Locate the fuse box (usually under the dashboard or in the engine compartment).
  • Remove the power window fuse using a fuse puller.
  • Inspect the fuse visually; if blown, replace it with a fuse of the same amperage rating (typically 30A).
  • Reconnect the battery terminal and test the power windows.
3. Test and Replace Power Window Switch
  • Remove the door panel to access the power window switch.
  • Disconnect the wiring harness from the switch.
  • Use a multimeter to test the switch for continuity.
  • If faulty, replace the switch with a new one, reconnect the wiring harness, and reassemble the door panel.
4. Inspect and Replace Window Motor
  • If the switch is functional, remove the door panel to access the window motor.
  • Disconnect the wiring harness from the power window motor.
  • Use a multimeter to check for voltage at the motor when the switch is pressed.
  • If there is voltage but the motor does not operate, remove the motor from the regulator assembly.
  • Replace the motor with a new unit, reconnect everything, and reassemble the door panel.
5. Final Assembly
  • Ensure all connections are secure.
  • Reattach the door panel, ensuring all clips and screws are in place.
  • Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
