Solution
1. Preparation
  • Gather necessary tools and parts.
  • Disconnect the battery to prevent electrical shorts.
2. Inspect and Replace Fuse
  • Locate the fuse box, usually found under the dashboard or in the engine compartment.
  • Identify the power window fuse using the diagram on the fuse box cover.
  • Remove the fuse using a fuse puller or pliers.
  • Inspect the fuse; replace if blown (typically a 20A fuse).
  • Reinstall the fuse and reconnect the battery.
3. Check and Repair Wiring
  • Remove the door panel using a socket set to access the wiring.
  • Inspect the wiring harness for frays or breaks.
  • Repair any damaged wires with electrical tape or replace sections as necessary.
  • Ensure all connectors are firmly seated.
4. Test and Replace Window Switch
  • Disconnect the window switch connector.
  • Use a multimeter to check for continuity; replace the switch if faulty.
  • Reconnect the new switch, ensuring a secure fit.
5. Inspect and Test Window Motor
  • Locate the window motor behind the door panel.
  • Disconnect the motor connector.
  • Using jumper wires, apply battery voltage directly to the motor terminals to check for operation.
  • If the motor does not respond, replace it.
6. Check Relay
  • Locate the power window relay in the fuse box.
  • Remove the relay and test it for continuity using a multimeter.
  • Replace the relay if it is defective.
