Had snow and ice storm overnight. I warmed car up, drove, then tried for a couple of seconds at a time for 2 or 3 tries to open and close the fromt passenger window. It opened 2 inches and then nothing. The driver window is perfect. But at the same time the front passenger front failed, the 2 rear windows failed and remain dead.

So I have 1 that is A-OK and 3 dead. I checked all fuses and all appear perfect although I have not swapped them out.

Does this make sense? Where do I begin?

Hi William,

Thank you for the donation.

I would start at the driver door master switch. There is a window lock master switch for the other door windows and power supply to it could be broken or the switch could be bad. Cold weather sometimes causes havoc to electrical systems and components and might clear off once the weather improves.
