Default 1985 XJ6 Door Windows

Hello, happy new year to everyone.
Today my trouble is, the 3 windows of my car refuses to roll up and down except the driver side.
what is possible cause and how to fix this to get the windows flow with rolling?

There has been a trace and noticed there is no power in the wires to the switch.

​Please help.

Thanks

Mike

Always start with the fuses. They may look fine but no juice flowing. You have the S57 wiring diagram, right? A free download and invaluable.

The window circuit is split left and right. A single window relay feeds the left and right window circuit breakers. The breakers then feed the switches. The fact that one window works tells us that the relay is OK and at least one of the two circuit breakers is OK. If you have a switch or switches that have no power then the problem is likely downstream of the circuit breakers, assuming (perhaps wrongly) that both breakers are OK.

Cleaning the switches often solves window problems, and I recommend doing so, but obviously all switches must have power.

Check the connections in the console as a possible cause of no power to the switches

Cheers
DD
