Do I have an electrical system problem with my car?

Question

Suddenly, my car's electrical windows no longer respond. Do I need a new fuse in the electrical system? How much does it cost? If not, what else could be the problem?

Answer 1

It could be several things. In order to trouble shoot, go from the simplist to the most difficult. Check the fuse first, if a new one is needed it cost very little, less than a dollar probably. Check all windows that are electric. You may have independent motors, and only one may be bad. First, check to see if the motor is getting electricity. Look for broken wiring or anything that may cause a short circuit. Also, windows may only work with ignition switch on, so ensure any electrical checks are do with ignition on. Good luck

Answer 2

If all the windows stopped working at the same time, it could be a fuse. Or the window switch. Check the fuses first. If they are OK, check the switch by removing it and using a 12 volt test light. Probe the hot wires, if OK, push the switches and probe the wires going to the window motors. If those wires are Ok, it's the window motors. But it's not likely they all quit working at the same time. Hope this helps.

Does sound like it could be a fuse problem. Check yuor fuse box....should be under the steering wheel or in the engine compartment. There should be a list as to what fuses go to what....

Answer 4

Fuses are less than a dollar. It could be the switch. Did you try the switches at every door.
If you smoke, the drivers switch panel becomes corroded from the fumes.

looks like a floor project, the two on the chassis floor, or the grounds on the PCM. recommend on your provider center that they do a voltage drop attempt in any respect floor connections, jointly with floor pins at PCM. could nicely be time ingesting. sturdy good fortune
