Gee, ny guess would be power window switch, but I have them and don't even recall where it is as I never sit back there! lol If it's not working, check the fuses, then pull the panel off and make sure it is hookes up right. (i.e. the plug(s) in tight)

power window switch, if it's not working check on the drivers door to see if the lock out is engaged.

That's the power window button. If it doesn't do anything, it might be because you have all passenger windows "off" with the button on the driver's door console.

Yep, it is a power window switch that did not do anything for the reason you mentioned. This is the first vehicle I've owned with power windows. Kinda of decadent, but then I've got a 12 y.o. nephew who's never seen a crank window.

You have a rare model there!That's the deluxe juicer, margarita maker button. Simply push down for a crushed ice margarita, push up for frozen. Unless he is mentioning the child lock button on the left.

no worries. People have asked many questions that to some seem obvious. There are car forums out there on the internet where such a question would have drawn huge abusive replies, and I am glad this is not one of those places.

Kinda of decadent, but then I've got a 12 y.o. nephew who's never seen a crank window.I gotta funny story about the power window lockout.....Was detailing my SUbaru (pre-ownership of the Vibe) getting ready the night before my FIRST VIBE MEET, well, I worked over the inside first... took off to the car wash (at 12:30 at night) and as I pulled in the light was a little funny and being that I just cleaned the windows, i figured the passenger window was up.... lol... it wasn't and I found out as I sprayed over the window area and nothing STOPPED IT..... lol...I ran home and starte troubleshooting, like any good tech would... after about 1/2hr, I realized I had pushed the lock-out switch while cleaning.... DOH.... Then I spen an hour drtying the interior and THEN went back to the car wash and finished what I started, so yeah, didn't get in bed till 3am the might before the meet... lol...

I can almost relate though now that I think of it. My first car was an 84 Escort 2 door with roll ups, then I had two Saturns with roll ups. Then a 2 door Civic w/ pwr. finally. So when I got this I looked at the switch for a second before realizing it was the window.

yep, window controls.this is somethin i love to do when someone rides in my backseat for the first time... almost everybody asks how to roll the window down (especially if it's dark outside), and i tell em "it doesn't go down. that was an option when i bought the car, but they wanted to charge me another hundred bucks." i usually get the "are you serious??" look. it's great

better than a Dodge neon. Power Windows front, crank windows rear, and NO options for power rears. I wanna say the PT was like that for a while too.
