    and can't seem to find any rips or frays any one have a problem like this

    Check the fuses, check the connections in on the door card ( requires removal of the door panel). Sun roof switch could be dead.

    If the sunroof switch is dead we have them available below.

    Click HERE to order or for more information.


    Let me know if you have any other questions.

    I've checked all the fuses and the connections in the door card, would the windows have any sort of connection to the sunroof switch or vice versa...I know the regulator is bad in back drivers side door...but the windows worked while that has been bad....it just baffles me because all the lights go out for the window switches yet the sunroof switch and all the light buttons are still red but everything on the door is dead except the rearview mirror control that looks fine...maybe im missing a bad wire somewhere but anyways thanks for the help!

    Weird. So that pretty much rules out bad contacts right? It would be crazy if all of them were rusted over.

    Start with 1 problem at a time. Personally I'd start with the driver's window because that's most important. Get out your meter and wiring diagram and get to it. Start at the symptom and work toward the source of the problem. There need not be any guessing here. Test and correct is all. If you need a "first step", just say the word and we'll get you started.

    Could also be that the wiring in the door jam is split. It's definitely going to take some investigating. Unfortunately wiring problems are difficult to pin point unless you're right there with the car in front of you.

    Good luck!
