Default Help with windows 97 accord coupe

A while back i took out the dash and removed the heater and ac boxes. Now that the car is back together the windows, door locks, and power mirrors do not work. The moon roof however does work.

Its 90 degrees out today and its awfully hot driving around with the windows up.

I have checked the fuses and they are all good. Can someone tell me where all the connectors are that I should check, or any other things I should check.

Also would it be that hard to go to the junkyard and get the crank assemblies out of a dx and swap them in?

I would start by testing the input for the driver's side master switch. Hopefully you are missing voltage or ground on a wire, then you will be able to work backwards.

The switch is pretty simple to remove. Search 0_Z8lE5zC0o on YouTube for a good video.

I put a volt meter to every wire on the driver side window switch. 2 had 12 volts all the rest had 10.8 volts.

I would also check grounds at G401 and G402, as the power windows, locks, and mirrors share those grounds.

Those grounds appear to be good.

You can download the 94 shop manual from the link below. The spooner link works.

https://www.hondaaccordforum.com/for...-manuals-4597/

That manual is almost identical to the 96, except for some changes. The testing of the master switch is the same.

I gave up and ordered manual regulators from rock auto $55 each compared to the $120 a piece the local honda dealership wanted.

Turns out only 94 coupes were offered in DX
