Default Rear window switches don't work.

Anyone have an idea if the rear window switch has its own fuse?

Went to finish my CB radio install in to the center console and power to my rear window switch is dead. The front switches work fine but the rear ones are dead.

I've wired my CB to the power to the power going to that switch but i've got no power going to it. It's been working fine but today its dead.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks

Looking at the '07 manual, it doesn't actually list power windows/locks for fuses. M26 is listed for the "driver window switch" and M27 is listed for the "window module". It also lists a "rear door module" fuse--J3. J4 and J5 are listed as "driver door node" and "passenger door node". Not certain if the tailgate is the rear door, but you might give all of those fuses a check.

On my 2011 I sometimes inadvertantly switch them to off when I clean the front dash. I would check that if you have not already done so.

LOL, not having power windows myself, neither did I. BTW: When your rear dome light stays on, it pushes to turn it off. Not so on the front dome light--just the rear.

Yeah, was thinking of that too!!! Most excellent idea

I also noticed in the fuse box that I had openings for all kinds of good stuff. Front and rear lockers, heated seats, passenger power seat.....so, if I just put in some of those little mini fuses, does all that good stuff magically appear?

Ok, before you all jump in, i'm just kidding.

Default Front Driver's side window - losing power and won't go up!

Okay, similar question, and no, my automatic windows are not switched off...i wish.

My front driver's side automatic window just in the last week has slowed down considerably when trying to rais and lower by the electric switch.

Now, this week, when I go to use the switch to bring the front drivers side window up, it stops, like it lost power, then after a couple tries, it will go up some more, then stop again. no power, not even a noise like it's stuck.

I hate to run to the dealership for something I may be able to fix myself.

Any ideas? Thanks!
