Hey guys so here is my issue that I would seriously appreciate some help with. I have a 90 XJ with power windows and locks that used to work great, but for some reason just completely stopped working. Now I've tried all the fixes like bypassing the window lock and such but I've still had no luck.

Also, the control to the side mirrors stopped as well so I don't know if that's connected or what.

I've literally tried everything other than completely rewiring it, but is there something I maybe could have missed? Thoughts?

Have you tried just checking for continuity in the wires with a multimeter? Super common for the wires to physically break in the door jamb. Would be weird for them all to stop working like that - but you never know.

X2. First place I would check

The weird thing is I feel like it was more of a steady decline and wouldn't that mean that the other door switches would still be working? I'll check that as soon as I get off work today though.

The solders inside of the switch are notorious for breaking. Just re-solder them and they should work as good as new.

90's Chrysler window switches were also really bad about collecting dirt and gunk like interior cleaners and protectants to the point where they would stop making contact. One of my old girlfriends had a '91 lebaron convertible that had window issues... A couple hours, some cleaner and elbow grease had them all back to 100%.

Good luck!
