Windows won't roll down. All fuses in car and engine bay seem good.
This happened at the same time that I took my headunit out. Any connection between the two.
Help. It's hot.

Turn off the window lock.
Before you say "It IS off REDZ! Damn, I'm not stupid!", go double check.
Then get out of the car, go open the hood, put up the prop rod, get back in the car, and check the lock switch again.
After that, if it doesn't work, go to the passenger side, open the door, take off the door panel, get back in the drivers side, and try the window lock again.
Heh.

WTF?
then get in your underwear and play "The Begee's" on your newly installed HU and try the window lock again. If that doesn't work call Chuck Norris and have him fly out to your car's location, tell him your window lock button called him a 'girlie man' and he will roundhouse kick your window lock button. If that doesn't work call REDZMAN and tell him he sucks at giving advice for broken power windows.

Hah, I had resoning for saying what I said.
We've had several threads by folks that "are sure" the window lock is off. THen they take it to the dealer to find it's not.
Just like the folks that "are sure" the MAF is on the correct way. Then, after being told 30 times to check their MAF, they find out it's on backwards.

Ok, ok.... enough pwnage for one thread.
Does the motor whine? Do you hear a click (and I don't mean the click from pressing the button down) at all when you press the down button?
If you hear NOTHING, check your window lock button. lmao.gif

Hah, the same thing happened to me, I was looking for the other screws to get the door panel off and noticed that button I never used was down.
LOL

What happened? Was it the LED bulb deal?
