window switches Sign In

i have a 03 buick park avenue and the electric window switches in the drivers door stopped working. Also the electric lock switch doesnt work in the drivers door panel. I have checked fuses in all three fuse boxes,( hood, under dash, under rear seat) and they are all ok. Is there a relay for the drivers door or is there other fuses somewhere?

These motors work cheifly by reversing polarity so you need check both for power and ground being reversed for the action requested,

the motors for the other windows work fine. the power window switches on the other three doors work normally. the windows go up and down. the drivers door console with the 4 window , remote mirror , electric lock and there are 3 seat switches on the door that set the drivers seat to 1, 2 or exit. none of those switches work. thats what makes me think it is a fuse. i can lock and unlock the door with the remote. so i know the electric lock works properly.

This kind of sounds like a power feed problem to the master switch.
Maybe check the wiring harness inside the conduit between the body and the door. The opening and closing of the door; will have a pop can affect on the wires and there may be a broken wire?

I assure you it's not a fuse problem. One circuit breaker powers everything.
