    Windows stopped working

    My little brother has an 86 325 5 speed and one day all the windows stopped working. They all worked perfectly and then they stopped...thankfully while they were up. I tested the windows and they are not getting power. I traced it all the way back to the fuse block and the fuse isn't getting power. Any ideas? I know on my 91 the owners manual says something about a reset switch. What about the 86? With summer coming on and no ac having the windows down is a must!

    Try the black switch up near the hazards its the breaker for the windows.

        Smash out the windows. That should help a bit.

          The breaker did the trick. Thanks!
