I already changed the switch out on the driver door. No green light so it's like it's not getting any power. Thank you in advance.

Hi,

These vehicles have a TIPM (totally integrated power module) under the hood. They are known to have problems with the connectors. There are too many small pins in each connector. As a result, they are known to corrode and break or simply push inward and lose contact.

So, I need you to do the following. First, I attached the wiring schematic for the window circuit below, so you have a reference.

Disconnect the connector at the driver's door switch and locate the pink wire with a brown tracer. That should have battery voltage with the key in the on position. Confirm that.

If that checks good, locate the black wire with a green tracer and the black wire with a yellow tracer. Those provide a ground for the circuit. Confirm continuity to ground in both wires.

Here is a link you may find helpful:

Let me know what you find.

Take care,

Joe
