Quick question, my driver window buttons don’t work. The lock buttons work and when I use the passenger switch to roll the window down it works but the driver side is like dead. I tried switching out the actual switch itself and still does it. Anyone ever had this problem and what was the fix from my understanding it’s not the fuse because the passenger and driver windows share the same fuse/relay right??
 
That just happened to me and the window regulator had gone bad. Not sure why the passenger didn’t work but I replaced the regulator and it works fine now but the weird thing is my passenger side still won’t roll down with the driver side switch. Take the door panel off and use two wires off a battery and put them in the regulator plug check both ways if nothing happens it’s the motor. You can also pull the switch apart and clean the contacts those sometimes get gummed up.

I’ll have to check all those contacts and everything out tomorrow, if everything looks good I’ll try buying a new motor. Hopefully that fixes the problem. Sucks not being able to roll my windows down LOL I have to fix a line on my ac and then it won’t be as bad LOL but rn I need it bad LOL
