Power windows stopped working and dome lights stay on. Power locks work only with the "clicker" but not on driver door

Nothing on the drivers door is working, power windows, locks and mirrors stopped working. Windows don't work on any of the doors. This happened suddenly. Also dome lights stay on all the time unless you turn off with dimmer switch

    did you check to see if you have power at the master window control switches located on the driver's door? if you are getting battery voltage at the master control switch with the ignition in the on position, then the switch is bad.

    Also Robert it may be a simple as taking the switches of the door just pop them out. A lot of the problem is when you open the drivers door and it is raining water gets under the switches. I have on acccasion popped them out and cleaned the contacts and they work.

Look under the hood fuse no. 12 should be for power windows. Or maybe something like a bad ground wire in drivers door harness.

SOURCE: Power windows, door locks and mirrors inop.

Sounds familiar - I pulled the rubber boot back and found the black wire was broken. I stripped the wires and put on a couple bullet connectors (terminators) and all is good. Just wish I would have seen this post before I took the door panel off... Oh well...

SOURCE: No electric windows, mirrors, or door locks

Look in the Engine bay fuse box at Fuse #12 this should be for the power windows. If this checks out OK, it could be a fault with a bad ground wire in driver's side door harness. You should be able to pry the runbber boot from the drivers door, and check the larger Black wire that goes through it. These have been known to break after a few years use. If it is the cable, cut neatly, strip the ends anu use a crimp splice. Hope this is a quick and easy fix for you. If it helps you solve the problem, Please take a moment to rate as Fixya! Thanks.

Check for a broken 12V+ or broken ground wire in the rubber boot that goes from the drivers door to the hinge pillar. Had this problem on mine and found both wires broken from years of flexing when door opened and closed. Don't try to splice the break, as the wire is too short and is also brittle. Run new (same guage) wire through the boot and splice inside the door and under the left side kick panel.

I had same problem it is a ground wire broken in the harness rubber boot between dthe driver door. Peel back the rubber that protects wires and you will find broken ground wire(black) add a piece of wire solder and wrap with electrical tape put rubber boot back into door everything should work.

Beings as everything that stopped working is on the passenger side, I'd think some wiring got disconnected or broken.

My 2004 jeep grand cherkee nothing works on the drivers door. power windows and locks and mirriors dont work. Yesterday dome light would not go out today it wont light when drivers door open but will come...

Wiring Loom between door and body breaks internally. Take the car to an Auto Electrician and they can repair the loom. It is quite a common problem.

Power windows dont work and dome light stays on

It has to be a broken wire! Initially, I lost the door locks & power to the windows ONLY when the drivers door was open. When I closed the door, the problem went away. Finally, I had the problem all the time. I checked for 12 vdc at the switch in the drivers door and there was NO POWER. In the rubber boot (between the car & door) I found the grey wire (with a pink stripe) was broken internally but the INSULATION WAS NOT!!!
