Not working properly how ? Check power an grounds - lose connections maybe ! Driver door master switch . Go to www.bbbind.com for wiring diagram for power window circuit ! Do you have a volt meter ? You have a accessory relay in the central junction box that supplies power to the driver door master switch ! At bbbind click on technical information , next click on tsb's an wiring diagrams ! next page go to the bottom an click I agree .Next page click on wiring diagrams an enter your vehicle info. Then system -body & accessories , subsystem -power windows ! Next go to you tube videos an check out electrical trouble shooting ! Good luck !
Did you replace the motor, too? If so, you may be losing power or ground at the master switch, but if the passenger window works normally then no, something else. Either the motor or the connections.
You need to see a wiring diagram to see how the ignition switch allows or sends power to that 30 amp fuse. The switch may turn on a relay (maybe the ignition relay) that sends power to the fuse panel. Or the run wire out of the switch may itself turn power on at the fuses. You may have a loose connection behind the fuse panel. Get a test light, pull the fuse, and check for power at the fuse terminals, with key on. One terminal for the fuse should have power. If not, power is lost between the ignition switch and that fuse. If it does have power, and windows still don't work, check the wire from fuse panel to the master switch-loose or poor connections, maybe a partially broken wire. If it looks good, check the ground wire for the windows. The ground wire originates at the master switch and will go back into the cabin to a nearby ground, possibly behind the left kick panel. If still no help, someone may need a volt- ohmmeter to start checking continuity of wires, voltage drops, etc.
Ground goes through the master switch on the drivers side. Bad master switch can cause the other windows not to work. Don't forget to check the "window lock" switch in the master switch, which shuts off the other 3 windows.
It's either a master fuse for the whole window system (if your car has that) or it's the switch module on the driver's door. All the window power is routed first to the driver's door, then out to the others. If your master switch on the driver's door dies, you'll lose all the window controls. Check fuses, and if they're OK, replace the driver's door switch panel. Once you do that, you should be fine.
The driver side window switch is the master switch, the power or input to either roll the window up or down goes thru that switch. Double check all the connections on the back of the driver side window switch are good. With a DVOM you can also check to see if 12v are even getting to the master switch in the first place. If you aren't even getting power to the main power window switch you could've blown the power window fuse.
I would be looking at replacement of the master control switch. The other possibility is a semi-broken wire that powers the master control. What I would advise: the next time it happens, remove the master switch and plug/unplug/replug the connector. See if that helps. If not, close and open the door whilst manipulating the switches. If the switches start working, you have a bad power feed wire.
There is a relay, it may be sticking open, also the power lead to the master window switch (driver door) may be burnt or damaged, I believe the relay is in the engine compartment.
1.Remove the switch from the door trim panel.2.Check for continuity between the terminals. If continuity is not as specified in the table, replace the power window switch.POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCHWINDOW LOCK SWITCH
