bynarie Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 Occasionally the power windows seem to stop working for a day or so but then they will start working again. What happens is that the windows will not go up or down, but you will hear the clicking noise like they are trying to move.. All 4 windows are affected. All 4 switches stop working at the same time and then start working again at the same time. So I'm guessing its not a motor issue. But is there any 1 component that would affect all 4 windows and switches at the same time? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean H Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 In the interior fuse panel is a 25 amp circuit breaker. It feeds all the power windows. There is another 25 amp circuit breaker near it. For power seats. You could switch them and see what happens. It's up underneath the glove box. Shot in the dark, are you aware of the window lockout switch on the drivers switch panel? Try engaging it both ways to see if it affects anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks question ,,,,is it each window doing it with their door button? or are you saying it is happening from the drivers door control buttons? there has been a wiring problem that is in the lower drivers door jamb that the wires are breaking / or shorting out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larryl Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 A broken wire in the harness can cause strange issues as they can occasionally make contact and work... I had to replace the harness 2late4u 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to replace the harness ^^^ What I have seen in comparing the strand count on wires of the same gauge, across a span of 47 years (my 1946 Plymouth compared to a 93 Chrysler T&C) is that they used a much higher strand count wire on the older car, when compared to the later model one. More strands = greater ability to withstand repeated flexing. And about the only place where there was more or less constant flexing on the old car was in the engine harness. Incidentally, however, that's also where I saw the most wire failure in the 93. I would have expected to find it in the door to body harnesses. But come to think of it, I'm not sure I did a strand count on those wires on the 93. Should do that sometime, because they just may have used high strand count wire in those constant flex areas.
