2005 Accord LX, 3 windows do not go down
When I try to put down the passenger or rear windows whether it's the driver's switch or the individual door switches, I can hear the window try to activate, but they don't move. The driver's window works fine. I pushed the child lock a few times to see if that made a difference and it did not.
Could this be a defective child lock switch? If so what's a good place to get one whether new or in good used condition?

First place I'd look is the Child Lockout switch. There are a number of online Honda parts retailers you can choose to buy the part from and pretty much all of their prices are consistent.

That's what I was thinking, however I don't think I can buy just the child lockout part. Isn't the whole drivers door switch a single unit for everything?

Thanks, rather than do all that testing; I just elected to buy the entire switch assembly from a salvage yard on Car-Part.com (shout out to Newton Auto Salvage 800-552-2659, they actually put the pictures of the actual part up so you know exactly what you are getting. So many times I have ordered Grade A parts off that site only to have them arrive looking like they have been dragged 100 miles down I-95).
The trim just pops out (start working from the back of it in the door cup handle and then forward). Once you replace it you will have to reprogram your keyfob by turning the car to ON II (just before you are starting the car) and then pushing lock or unlock and then off and then repeat this 4 times. You have to do it in no more than 4 secs a pop or you will have to start over.
The part we got was in far better condition than my wife's mostly highway mile 2005 accord with 168k on it. All the lettering and icons nice and crisp. About a 5 min repair if you have all your ducks in a row, 10-15mins if you have to look up how to get the trim off and reprogram the fob.
Thanks for the help guys.
