    Hello guys n gals, Hope you're all well.

    I've just bought a Gen 2 Prius at a truly rock bottom price, so obviously it has it's issues and I plan to keep it as a long term project. So the first very strange thing is that only one window works (driver's side rear) and there is no noise, clicking, or anything on the others when I press both the driver's switch and the individual switches. I also have no power mirrors, the don't move in any direction. So today I took the drivers's door card off to check if there is voltage going to the motor, tested using orange as ground, and thick green/yellow for up and down while I operated the switch in accessory mode, nothing. Anyone have any ideas?

    The main switch box on the drivers side may be the issue. If it becomes faulty, it will cause the other locations (even using their own buttons) not to work. You can pick one up online for cheap. Start with the main one. I did this on my son's car, solved the issue. Of course, it may not work for you, but this is my suggestion.

    @Montgomery thanks for the reply, so I took the drivers side kick panel off just near the front of the door below the steering wheel and guess what.... one of the block connectors was just hanging there... disconnectedo_O re-connected it and voila! All windows and mirrors fully working, just need to get the door card back on now! (y)
