Electrical issue
Hi,
I need help figuring out the following. The main window control controls all windows except for the drivers side window. No other window control by any other door works. My mirrors do not move by the joystick. Neither of the front seats move. I 100% checked all the fuses in the heel boards. I doubt that all these items stopped working at the same time so they must be related somehow.
Any suggestions on how I should continue sorting this out would be appreciated.

I had a problem with the driver door control not moving the driver window
Found on the control connector lock bar loose letting the pins migrate away
You can test the strength of the of the window motor with a battery charger or regular battery with jumper cables as the 2 heavy wires at the front door panel opening , in the end as fully together would have to hold up button for a few seconds as window glass up , this clocks the controller

You could try a hard reset. Disconnect the battery and join the wires together for 30secs or so. This will sometimes fix odd problems with the window control, not sure for the seats. Or it might be the 308 I am thinking of!
Certainly, an easier / least intrusive first try
On the Hard Reset , the longer the better , like overnight
You can join the 2 battery cables together with a heavy car start jumper cable , battery cables removed from battery post , important to not short out battery , place a shop towel over battery to prevent contacting battery post

I've had results on the X300 security system , so why not try for the SLCM , BPM related systems
Free , easy try so why not if it doesn't hurt anything , only may be a misleading task in the process of problem solving if you don't set all your hopes on hard reset being the solution

I tried all methods of hard resets and unfortunately it didn't help.
I'm going to look at the wiring schematics to see what I can find. Does the body control unit have anything to do with the windows?
Thanks,

Body Control Module ( BPM ) ...........no . Besides BPM is buried fwd of glove compartment

The only thing that the BPM does with the windows is the "All Close" function, from my reading of the schematic.
Not to rub anything in , but info on Hard Reset working on certain things
