You could have a bad master switch but it needs to be tested.

Yeah, it's the buttons on the driver's door.

wright; Just a long shot, but make sure the window lock out button is not depressed. We've had a couple of those, just this past month.

Re: power windows stopped working at same time Sign In

wright; I tried finding a picture to attach, but couldn't. On both of my Dodge vehicles, the master switch on the driver's door has the function of commanding any of the windows. They also have a fifth button that I can depress so the grandkids in the back seat can't play with the windows. It's either that, or I would have to kill them.Mad Since this button gets used very little by most folks, the contacts can get dirty. If your's has this 'window lock out' button, push it in and out numerous times. You may get lucky. If not, HT is correct, you'll have to have that switch replaced.

Thank you very much.
I will have to try that. Does anyone else have any suggestions so I can try them all at once? Thanks

There are no other suggestion except the trace the circuit the way it supposed to be diagnosed.
