rear windows not working

[LL - NY]

Fortunately (or not) 4K's power window switches are all located in the
console, in front of the shifter. So the immediate driver's door boot
response
doesn't work here. Of course, that makes the diagnosis a bit tougher. My
vote would be the lock-out switch, however, the rear windows should still
work from the console switches, unless the power connection to the lock
out switch has failed. If you're not sure which switch is the lock-out, it's
the
unlabelled (of course) center or 5th switch on the console. Now if the power
mirror doesn't function, THEN check the door boot.
