window motor or regulator or ??
sometime last spring every window in my '97 honda accord 4-door stopped working except for the driver's window. mechanic said it'd cost me $84 just to take off the driver's side door panel to look at it but suggested i go to a local parts garden (junkyard) where they tell me the help would find the part i needed, take off the panel and replace the part and if it worked, i'd pay. if it didn't, i wouldn't. anybody know what the name or part number might be for the motor or switch that's burnt-out?

Problem suggests a fault in the main switch or main switch ground path. Check car-part.com for a replacement master switch panel (main is one switch on master panel). I found them for as little as $15 on car-part.com.
Are you aware main switch disables all power windows except driver's? I assumed so, but just wanted to check. good luck |

went to car-parts.com, cheapest i could find (without calling for a price) was $75 for something referred to as "4DR MAIN GRN G" or "MAIN,LX 4DR 4CYL,gry-B." then there was "New in box---4-dr master switch" for a few dollars more. something else referred to as "94-97 New 4dr Mstr 1240410" for another few dollars. for $10 more there was "641.HO1J97,DRIVERS SIDE MASTER SWITCH,4DR,94-97" or "NEW,L-MASTER,93-97 4DR,5-11." at this point, the sweat a'rollin off me at each and every stop-lite (a/c's out, too), $75-85 is not out of the question. any of these be what you referred to?

Search for your car, "power window switch" and go to * page for lowest cost.
good luck |
Pretty sure it is the switch, a volt meter will help to confirim. A few tests of the old one and you can be sure.

did you hit the child safety switch directly in front of the frt door switches. I think they control all the windows except the drivers window. check it with a meter if its bad you might be able to jump it off.

first 84 dollars to remove two screws a door lock clip and disconnect some plugs is a 5 minute job. also by taking the door panel off all you will find is a working window regulator and the door lock module
like poorman said . the master switch can be removed with one screw and push back to remove the switch assembly. you dont have to take the door panel off. at least not at this point |
mechanic said it'd cost me $84 just to take off the driver's side door panel to look at it ‪1AAuto.com Install Remove Door Panel Trim Honda Accord 1994-97 Front‬‏ - YouTube Note that he removes the control panel with all of the window switches on it from the door before removing the door panel. In my case I could not get it removed it just wouldn't budge without the feeling that it would break in half. If this is the case you can just leave it in the door panel and skip this step but after you remove the door panel when you're unplugging the courtesy light you'll also have to unplug the control panel harness/plug at this time. If you just pull the panel away from the door without doing so you'll rip the wires right out. When you're unplugging the courtesy light you'll notice this, this can't be missed. |
