Loss of power to control switches to power windows/locks/mirror/trunk release

My 2003 Lesabre Ltd was soaked after being caught in a downpour with windows open. Initially I had intermittent power and use of windows. Now none of the above work at all. The remote still locks/unlocks doors and opens trunk. I accessed the fuse/relay panel. Everything is dry (and still dusty) but the the fuse block is warmer than the surrounding ambient temperature. Fuses are fine.

Have the problem system checked for proper ground. It may be at the fuse box if it got wet. Electricity and water mean corrosion when there are two metals present - usually copper and iron. When electrical boxes or connections get 'warm' it means that there is added resistance in the circuit causing the heat. (like a light bulb without the light)

the wirring that goes to the door may have breaks in it, if so they will need to be repaired. would start to look at the drivers door.

If all power devices stopped at the same time you may have a bad fuse link. Since it is rare for all the fuses blowing at once and you already checked them. Start at your fuse links before assuming something expensive.

Follow the wiring from between the door and the body to the insides under the dashboard. It's usually inside a soft plastic or rubber tube for protection. Follow the wire bundle if you can to the fuse panel. I don't know exactly where it is on this car, but it's usually very close to the left and underneath of the dashboard. You may find that a plug that has all these wires together has come loose somewhere.

Please update here on your progress. Good luck!

if the drivers door window works you probably have a open in the serial data line.i have found the data line corroded under the drivers seat causing this problem on other vehicles.you need to check for continuity on the data line between the driver door module and either one of the other door modules.the data line is tan with a white stripe.if it does not have continuity it is probably corroded under the drivers seat beneath the carpet.keep posted.

Windows, side mirrors and door locks suddenly stopped working on 2002 Buick Lesabre Limited

The first thing to do would be to hook up a factory or professional type scan tool an check for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble code's . This vehicle has very complex electronic's. Serial data communication network,class2 data bus . There are electronic modules inside the door's that control the lock's ,power window's , power mirror's . Your best bet ,take it to a qualified repair shop . Not a fuse problem , driver an passenger door module each have thier own power supply. Two circuit breakers ,PWR/WDO circuit breaker 30 amp. You could check DRVMDL 10amp fuse ,located in the rear fuse box , PASSMDL 10amp fuse rear fuse box , RRDR/MDL 10 amp fuse rear fuse box . Rear fuse box is under the back seat . None of the window's , lock's etc.. work from any door switch ?

I cannot control anything from the driver side door: windows, locks, mirrors, trunk release, fuel tank release NOTHING! Please help.

There are fuses for each individual doors power. In your owners manual are diagrams of fuse boxes and fuse locations. Id just try that first.

Windows will not work from drivers side master switch or the single door switches lock not working also remote mirrors dont 2001 jeep grand cherokee ltd

First thing to check is the fuses. Look underneath the drivers side steering wheel (to the left) for a covered fuse box. Remove the cover and find the fuse that controls the locks and windows and mirrors (two-three separate fuses) Pull them out "one by one" and see if they are burned out. If they are, replace them with the correct number fuse.If it is not the fuse, the door lock actuator has failed (for the door locks) or the master switch that controls the locks is bad. Go to your local junk yard and find a replacement for cheap
