Ok, the other day I had some snow on my windows. I decided to roll them down to remove the snow. I hit all of the briefly, but realized there were enough ice frozen on the car to keep the windows shut.

Now the only window that responds to any of the buttons is the driver's window. The other 3 are DOA. They do not respond to the driver door switch or the individual door switches.

I have not noticed any other systems not working. Door lock all work using any of the buttons.

I checked the 20amp fuses under the dash, as I thought these might be the culprit, but they all look clean and good.

Not sure where to go from here. Anyone have any ideas?

Did you make sure the window lock button is not locked? It will keep the other 3 windows from working if it is. Or that switch could be bad.

Are you that computer tech guy that asked me if I had my computer plugged in? I told you I plugged it into my new power strip!


While I hope that is the case, I'll be checking into the retirement home when I left my pants in the dryer to long and now they flew to Chicago.

You may want to check the relay, and possibly the under hood fuses as well. My Vibe never had power windows but I do recall a slot in the under hood fuse block for them.

Can we change this thread to "I'm a big cotton headed ninny muggins!" Window lock button? Can't see the forest for the trees. Would have bit me if it were a snake.

I'm debating giving away all my tools and my man card after that one.

Ahhhh c'mon. We all make fools of ourselves at some point. I even put my foot in my mouth all too often and somehow still have all my teeth (been slapped, punched, etc ) Glad to hear this was an easy fix. I recently had a service call (last summer that is) where the A/c wouldn't come on in the house. Owner turned off all electric baseboard heaters (seeing how it was summer at the time) and didn't realize that the A/C breaker was right in line with all the heaters. Doooooooh !!!!!!! That was an easy case of beer Glad to hear you human & enjoy your day

How do you think i knew to suggest the lock button? Been there, done that, got the t-shirt too! Glad it was something simple.
