I have a 2000 century. My power windows will not work. I have checked the fuses and the relays. the power mirrors and power locks do work however. Also my odometer is not lit up Any suggestions????

The digital odometer is a common problem on these cars. The solder joints in the IP lose connection and it goes out. If it's all the windows, it's probably a bad master switch on the drivers door. All power to the other windows is routed through this switch. If it's just one window, it's either a bad motor or the cable operated regulator. The motors have internal thermal limiters that cut the motor off if it gets too hot. These can fail causing inop windows. The regulators have plastic guides that break off, causing the cable to jump off track and the window will not move. Removal of the interior door panel will let you see the assembly, and if the cables are still on their guides, then the motor is probably bad.
