My power windows (all of them) are now working only at certain times. Sometimes when I start my car with the driver's door open they work, sometimes they don't work at all.

No fuses in the cabin are blown, nor are there any blown fuses under the hood. It must be a wiring problem, right?

usually when i start the car with the driver's door open, the windows will work. for the past few days, they've been working fine. i haven't had a problem with interior lights, though.

thanks, i'm really looking forward to fixing it! how do you remove the flex?
