All windows work from master switch except driver side drivers side. When I hit the button there is a click. I pulled the switch out for testing just need to know what to look for before removing the panel.

Pulled door panel anyways was easy, harness to motor has 6 wires all 6 have power using a weird tester that has a battery. My regular test light broke. If anything is needed to check voltage I need to use my multi-meter just let me know how to duplicate the testing with a multi-meter. Before it broke the test light showed 2.6 volts or so on 4 of the harness wires I believe, not the center ones if am not mistaken. When using this battery tester light all shows res light but only one is dim, which is the smaller orange/silver wire.

Hi,

Which one doesn't work? The driver's window or both on the driver's side. You said the driver's side driver's side, so I'm confused. LOL

If it is only related to the driver's window, it may be related to the CPU. The only two wires I would check are the blue/red and the blue/black. They should get power (12v) based on if you want up or down.

The first two pics are the entire wiring schematic for the windows and locks. The last two pics are specific to the power supply to the driver's side window. If they have power, replace the motor. If they have no power, replace the master switch.

Let me know if it is more than just that one window.

Take care,
Joe

Sorry, it's crazy if I type via my phone, driver side not working. That makes sense, I will start testing the motor and switch wires to see what I get. Does it need to come out as voltage battery?

Hi,

Yes, they should have 12v. Let me know what you find or if you need help.
