Odd Power window problem
Recently, 3 of my 4 power windows simultaneously stopped working. None of the 3 windows (left front and both rears) will respond to either the master switch nor their individual switches. I checked the fuse, which is fine obviously since one window (the right front) still works with the master and its own switch. I also suspected the master switch, but after swapping out the old with a new one, no difference.
There is no motor activation at all...no motor can be heard at any of these windows so it isn't just off the regulator track. I also don't believe 3 motors or regulators could have failed at the exact same time. However, while messing with it last night with the engine idling and the interior lights on, I noticed when I press any of the switches to the bad windows, there is an obvious current draw, as the interior lights dim and the idle drops about 50-100 rpm. Any ideas? Bad ground? I know all windows are wired through the master switch, but could one bad window motor cause the other 2 to stop working as if they were in series or something? I am stumped...any help would be very much appreciated!
