It all started when I was turning around in the road and my shifter linkage bushing broke. (To everyone out there this is when suddenly stuck in a gear and the shifter flops around..buy the Delran or steel bushing on eBay for $20.oo rather than $350.00 from Saturn for the whole cable assembly)
Anyway, I pulled the shifter housing off in someone's driveway with a borrowed pair of screw drivers and popped the tranny into second so I could limp home. It was hot and my windows were down and in order to pop the linkage with my fingers, I had to disconnect all of the window switches in order to remove the housing. I got back to work and plugged the switches back in to roll up the windows and KAZAM...Nothing works. I check the fuses, none are burnt. The rear view mirror still works, the switch is in the same location. Could this be a relay? or what? I have had no other problems before this with the windows. Does anyone have a suggestion? My best theory is that its either a relay or the drivers window stitch crapped out...assuming the others run their power through it. It is the only one that doesn't click when its depressed.
