This is how repair/troubleshooting videos should be. Very clear explanation behind every action. Steps are not only easy to follow but you understand the reasoning behind every step. In my opinion that is the biggest thing in diagnostic work is understanding the WHY behind what youre doing. Excellent video my friend!

Thanks for the easy explanation of the switch to motor connection. It helped me figure out that the rear window motor is not bad, it's the switch that doesn't pull it back up. It works from the driver's side switches just fine.

Thanx for the easy explanations with editing, and triple thanx for getting a second person to HOLD the camera! Too often with other videos it is too hard to follow the path and place of what's going on because the camera is unsteady and jumping all over the place because the mechanic is trying to hold the camera AND perform the job at the same time. I appreciate them trying to be helpful, but sometimes their camera usage makes it more difficult. The instructions here are easy to follow (even if not always understood) because the viewer is not under pressure trying to learn something while an earthquake is happening!

Best video out there explaining everything clearly! Thanks so much!

Thanks for mentioning the lockout switch. Passenger side window on my 2 door would not roll up and was stuck in the fully down position. Was trying to figure out why, was dreading a drive motor repair, and didn't occur to me to check the lockout, because I never use it. But it must have inadvertently been pressed, because it was in the down position. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Easiest fix ever. Of course it worked just fine after I unpressed the switch. 😂

Thought this was the issue to my girlfriend's 2009 Kia Spectra due to 3 of her windows not going down besides the drivers side window. I didn't think to check the window lock cause I assumed she had already checked that before asking for my help since I usually fix issues with her car here and there if she can't get it on her own. As soon as he said make sure to see if the power window isn't locked I had to pause to ask if she checked and low and behold it was locked all along lol Got a good laugh out of it. Excellent video!!!

Thanks, I'll update when I get to the bottom of it. It may help someone with a similar issue. I'm looking at the passenger door control module at this point because the switch sends the up and down control signal through it to the window motor. When checking from the motor connector end while activating the switch up and down, I only get momentary power. My test light shows power just briefly and not constant while the switch is activated. I'm going to try another door control module and see if that is the culprit.

I found the up and down wire but when I press the switch the test light only comes on briefly and shuts off. Is this what it should do? I'm thinking that the test light should stay lit as long as I'm pressing the switch or otherwise the motor wouldn't get enough power to lift or lower the window. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

@@backyardchevy328 On my 2005 Envoy the main controller on the driver's door is not working. I've tested the wires and they all seem fine & have power but the buttons (on the main cluster) do not work. However they do work using their own controllers. Becsuse the main controller isn't working there is no way to put the driver's window down, etc. All interior things are fine like the radio & interior lights etc. Ok... Well this just got weird. I went to check the doors and I was just messing around checking fuses, etc. I lost all of the electric to the windows, the main controller and each door. But.. I decided to check fuses... A few under the seat and some under the hood. Then as I was in the car and turned the key I heard the car cycle through the locks, etc. So I tried the driver's side window and It worked! All of them worked, even the driver's side but, it was very slow going down. I'm not sure what is going on, I do believe I have an electrical problem which has been causing a slow drain and I often have to jump my car (I have my own jump thing for that). Anyway I decided I had to give up for the night, it was dark and I needed to go in. When I tried to look up the car with the remote it didn't sound correct... So, I checked each door and none of them locked 🤔 I went around and manually locked them and went in for the night. It'll be interesting to see what tomorrow brings.
