| Window does not respond to switch. | Loose electrical connection, blown fuse, faulty window motor, or faulty switch. | Check wiring harness connection at the switch. Inspect vehicle's fuse box for a blown fuse related to power windows and replace if necessary. If the issue persists, the window motor or switch may need replacement. |
