First of all, Car was stored for a couple years during deployment.
Now as it it up and running, I am having the following issues:
(1) From drivers window controls all windows \\'work\\'. I say \\"work\\" because the Driver\\'s side switches initiate the other 3 window motors. The rear windows work fine from driver panel.
(2) Front PAX and BOTH rear individual switches appear dead. (FUSE issue?)
(3) To further complicate this, front driver and front PAX just started clicking and \\"stuttering\\" closing windows and I have to pull up by hand, after they HAD been working fine for last two weeks. (Old lithium grease dried?)
Any help or links would be greatly appreciated as I have a limited military retirement income. |

Don't forget to check the Window lockout switch on the Drivers door sounds dumb I know but I have shot myself in the foot on that one. As for the stuttering I would check and lube the felts with dry silicone and check the regulator inside the door as well. |

I forgot to mention the window lock "appears" unlocked.
I was afraid I'd have to take all the door panels off.  |

Thanks for the replies.
UPDATE:
The passenger windows STILL do not operate either from the driver door or the passenger window switches.
I tried using a silicone spray on the tracks. I'd say MAYBE a 25% increase in downward motion but even at that, NEGATIVE motion going back up.
Fuses and relays listed in the owners\\\\' manual DO operate other systems so I am thinking (guessing) neither are the issue.
Thoughts? |

Since the passenger side window does not work from the driver or the passenger side switches I would suspect a window motor. It is possible the wires going to through the door jams maybe chafed or cut into. |

I took Driver door panel apart, (Noticed that switch panel was not properly seated) cleaned and re-installed drivers' switch controls.
I also noticed on a YouTube video the simple clicking that the driver's door and Pax door motor were making. (Click, click, click). Ordered a gear AND roller kit. When I opened the motor, I couldn't find much of the gear rollers. Most were wrapped around the worm gear.
In short, removed the motor, cleaned, greased it and the regulator arm and replaced. Works great.
I am ordering just the rollers for the Pax front window as I looked at the Driver's side door gear and it just needs a bit of cleaning.
Thanks to all who tutored me in the right direction !!! I am retired Military and save quite a few bucks.
