motors maybe? Find used ones and replace them.

thats the thing, the windows work fine when operated from the passenger side, but when you try to turn them down / up from the driver side main panel, its not working, and the power locks not working period, im completely lost as to wht else could be the problem

Thanks. I have worked on them before with friends who had similar problems. Fuses and motors have always been the problem.

ok you know the int timer ring, its right in front the window wiper switch, you use that to determine how fast the int mode ont the wiper goes, you turn that to the middle position, then you turn the car on for 10 secs, then turn it back off and bam everything works fine again, hope it works out for you too

it dint lol.. TBH I think it's just luck that it happened to fix yours this time and it might jus happen again, but hopefully it did it for good!

Mine started bout 7-8 months ago goin out every once in a while, then progressively got worse until now they never work.

Anybody got any other suggestions?

wait what did you turn to the middle position, was it the actual wiper? or was it the ring, when you turned on the car for 10 secs did the window wipers come on?

hmm.. yes it was the wipers, they came on when I turned the car on. Also - my car is the model b4 yours, so the wiper adjustment is a little different

ok well in my car, its not the wipers, on the same knob for the wipers, right infront of it there should be another one with that spins freely, its called the int timer you have to turn that to the middle position when yu start the car, your wipers should not come on, maybe theres a difference in the models, but check to see if you have that knob
