    Power window trouble

    Hey guys so one day I rolled my windows down and now they don't want to roll back up. The power sun roof still works great and I replaced the fuse so I'm stumped. Any help would be great.
    Thanks!

    You check the circuit breaker? Or if that was OK, how about the window switches? Depending on your year, the breaker will either be on the console on the Pass side or in the slots above the radio spot on the dash, real close to your emergency flasher button.

          I bumped mine once on accident. Took me a while to figure it out, didn't know there was a circuit breaker at the time. This was before I had a ETM or even an owner's manual, and I don't recall them mentioning it in the Bentley. Got a couple wise-ass comments when I asked about it. Glad it was that simple!

            Packard introduced the first power windows in the 1940 Packard 180 series.[1] This was a hydro-electric system. In 1941, the Ford Motor Company followed with the first power windows on the Lincoln Custom (only the limousine and seven-passenger sedans).[2] Cadillac had a straight-electric divider window (but not side windows) on their series 75.
            Power assists originated in the need and desire to move convertible body-style tops up and down by some means other than human effort. The earliest power assists were vacuum-operated and were offered on Chrysler Corporation vehicles, particularly the low-cost Plymouth convertibles in the late 1930s.
            Shortly before World War II, General Motors developed a central hydraulic pump for working convertible tops.[3] This system was introduced on 1942 convertibles built by GM. Previously, GM had used a vacuum system which did not have the power to handle increasingly larger and complex (four side-windows vs. only two) convertible top mechanisms.
            Chief Engineer of the Buick Division, Charles A. Chayne, "...had introduced an electrically controlled hydraulic system into the 1946 Buick convertibles that provided fingertip operation of the top, door windows, and front seat adjustment".[4] These systems were based on major hydraulic advances made in military weapons in preparation for World War II.if you shot out your problem so can visit link..............
