Power Windows, Trunk Switch, Center Console kuput (Not a Synch question, I promise)
Maybe someone will have a specific culprit...
Had to do a reset when my central locking started to act up awhile back - after I did that, it cleared my locking problem, but created a new one: the power windows, trunk switch, and mirror control, from the center console will not work.
Windows and trunk operate via fob and the rear window switches don't operate either (although I'm guessing because the last setting I had the rear windows to were to be on child lock, so now I can't undo that...)
I searched the forum and the stickys and saw that some had very similar problem, but they were usually cleared with another reset (which I tried but worked to no avail) but no specific solution was really discussed.
Checked fuses, multimeter, etc - no dice.
Battery?
PSE culprit here? Not too savvy with that.
I have a great indy mechanic, but ya know - love to save a dime if I could.
Any suggestions or input is, as always, greatly appreciated.
Thanks all -

Pull the
wood off and check that the multi switch module is properly plugged in.All those functions are on one unit now.If you can't get it pm me I have a guy down in the south end that will sds it for you for $75 find the problem and you pick up the part from AAW or some other places that have even lower prices on warrantied used modules.
How was it coming down the big hill in NC during the snow and ice.
