I am trying to figure out why the rear windows dont go down when the switch at the door is activated. I have checked/replaced fuses, checked wiring to the switches and fuses, bench tested both motors. All checks out.

All the windows work when the center console switches are activated. I have swapped out know working switches and still nothing happens. Any ideas/

Is the safety switch in the proper position?

......or defective.......??

Is the lock out safety switch depressed or electrically open? in the console left switch.

I have extra center console switches so ill play musical switches tommorow. And I have been trying to open the rear window with the safety switch open not depressed.

Still need to test the safety switch to make sure it actually works.
