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.

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.
