I checked the power and ground on the switch and found a ground a one of the wires had power as well, but the switch was not doing anything. Lock/unlock works. I can hear the contact clicking when I try to open the driver window, but neither window open. Trying from passenger also does not work. I dont hear any relay clicking anywhere. Checked all fuses since I didn't know where the fuse is and all were good.

Hello,

I would suggest to check for 12V power supply from driver side JB(junction box) on violet wire to pin B at either window switch.

Also check fuses Power 1 fuse(30A), ECU-B fuse(10A) and ECU-IG(10A).
The diagrams below show 4 electric windows.
The 3rd diagram shows location of the Power 1 fuse.

Hello,

The correct diagram is below, check the 12V supply on blue wire to pin 9 at the driver side master switch and pin 4 at the passenger side switch.

Cheers, Boris

Hello,

It sounds like there might be connection issues inside the door harness, suggest to remove door panels to check wiring from window switches to motors.

Cheers, Boris

No, I think they have not been used for a while and they were just jammed. They still working, drove the car several times. Wiring looks all factory and all plastics in place, regulators solid.
