My driver-side window stop working about a year ago and today me and my husband thought we would fix it, we thought it was the window regulator so we put a new one in and it still didn't work. So we will be returning it. I came to UA-cam Academy and found your video, did just what you said to do, followed your instruction to the t, hooked it back up, and magic it worked. Thank you for this video! I don't have to open the door at Drive-thru to pay anymore. I can roll my window down! I am a big DIY=er and if I can't fix it then I'll pay somebody.
You're welcome. I'm glad I could help and congrats on a good repair.
I just started the video and started following what you did up until the point where I had nothing for the screws. I just blew on the ends put it back together, prayed for the best and it worked. Thank you!
Nice! Congrats on getting it working again.
Thank you so much for this great video. I was on the verge of ordering a new master switch. Your video was so thorough that even I, with my limited mechanical skills, could follow it. I am much appreciative. Thank you!
Congratulations on a great job fixing it yourself. Thanks for the comment.
Yust fixed mine 2 man I tough I'm yust guna doit thinking it wasn't guna do anything but yes it work good now
Thank you so much for this video. My driver window would not go up randomly today, and I was panicking to get it fixed before the sun went down and it rained tonight. I looked up replacement switches and they go for $200-300! Wild! I found so many videos like yours, but for the wrong cars/parts. It took me hours, but I finally found one for the switch I actually have in my vehicle. I just put it back in, and can confirm my driver side window is working again! You have saved me hundreds of dollars and days of stress and sadness. I cannot thank you enough. Liked and subscribed!
I'm glad the video helped. Thanks for sharing and congrats on a good repair.
My driver side window stop working. I didn't think this had a chance of working, you prove me wrong. Thank you so much.
Did all of the buttons Failed or just one ?
Just one the driver window @@Jay_Boogie214
Dude, I can't thank you enough for this detailed video. You are a blessing. Thank you so much. This totally fixed my Suburban's window not being able to go back up. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. 🙏
So glad I could help and congrats on a good repair. Thanks for sharing.
THANK YOU!!! I was nerves about trying this. Especially when I opened my 2005 master switch and it was nothing like yours. LOL. No screws but lots of plastic cleats which made it much harder to pry apart. The basics are the same so I followed the cleaning suggestions and put it all back together and voila! All switch function and smoothly too.Thanks again for the great step by step video. You saved me a ton of $$.
Maria Ortiz: I'm glad it helped but the best part is congrats on doing a good fix yourself. Thanks for sharing.
I watched your video because my driver side window on an '07 Tahoe is not working. Pull the switch out took everything apart wiped it off with a paper towel and used no alcohol or cleaning products. put it back together everything works fine.
Thanks for the great video!
Lee G: I'm glad my video helped you out and congratulations on a job well done!
Wow! This was an amazing video. Perfectly fixed my Yukon window that would not go down. Thank you!
Glad it helped. Great job on the repair. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, I performed this procedure in complete sequence, I skipped the toothpaste because I didn’t have visible corrosion, reassembled the entire switchboard and worked flawlessly. Great video!
Glad it helped and congrats on a job well done. Thanks for sharing.
Wow just found your video after all my windows stopped working on my Tahoe followed your steps and it worked great. Thank you so much. I almost took it in to the dealership thinking it was a wiring issue.
You're welcome. Thanks for sharing.
That was an easy fix. The inside of my switch was very clean and the contacts looked very good. However, it was not working on a few windows. As you suggested, a cleaning with Isopropyl and D5 Deoxit was all that was needed. Thank you for your time putting this video together for all of us, Thumbs up and God bless.
K BikeRider: I'm glad the video helped. Congrats on the fix. Thanks for the great comment and for sharing.
You are the greatest!!! I did this to my 2012 Chevy Tahoe and it worked...thank you Jesus and thank you for this helpful tip. Keep it coming 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 up!!!!
Steve Morgan: I'm glad the video helped you out. Congratulations on a job well done! Thanks for the comment and for sharing.
You just saved me $220. Thank you!!!! Mine just just the drivers side front window but still.... thanks for the video
You're welcome and congrats on a good repair. Thanks for sharing.
I always like fixing a part instead of replacing it. Nice that Chevy switches are like that, gives you a chance on repair. Just did my 08 drivers window switch, lost drvrs psgr window control. Assembly was way different, but the contact system was the same. And now it's working again. Tried this on the single window switches before as well. Had to replace that one after trying.
I'm glad the video helped. I'm glad it was your switch and not the wiring. Congrats on a good repair and thanks for sharing.
GREAT video, I have been doing this to my 2003 for years. Slightly different, and never used any solavants but just rubbed off the contacts on the circuit board. Cool video!
Thanks. I'm glad you liked it. Yeah, it usually does the job just cleaning them off. Good job on keeping after yours.
Man what a great video! It took me about 20 minutes to disassemble, clean and put it back together. Works great now!
Glad it helped. Good job on the repair. Thanks for sharing.
The greatest video on cleaning a master switch ever done on youtube. Great job man!!❤
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for the feedback.
I took mine apart but it didn't look so bad so I had my doubts but went through it anyway. Sure enough it resolved my drivers window issue, THANKS A LOT!
Glad it helped. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much! Great video! Followed it exactly and all switches now working. You saved me hundreds!
Thank you again!
Glad it helped. Congrats on a good repair.
This is a very informative and complete video. Great job!
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for this video. You explained the steps very well, making it easy to follow. I'm not an automotive DIYer for the most part, but I was able to get this job done in about an hour or so with your video. Made a difference and I got my son's window going again. Thanks again! Wouldn't happen to have any videos for a 2007 Town and Country, would you? 😅
Glad it helped. Thanks for the comment. I loved my G Caravans but I never had issues with the windows on them. If I had a donor one handy, I'd gladly do the video. The problem with repairing the Caravan/T and Country window switches is that they are SO cheap to simply replace new. I'm sure you'll get it sorted. Thanks again for sharing.
Tried it the 1st time didn't work cause I didn't do the same steps just clean with soap and water and I was scared the toothpaste and Alcohol would mess up something but went back and did exactly what he did Thanks cause I didn't want to spend 100 on a used switch from ebay plus its about to rain your a life saver you get 5 stars from me
I'm glad I could help. Thanks for the comment.
Unbelievable video and craftsmanship.
Glad it helped. Thanks for the comment.
Did it on my 2007 Escalade esv worked like magic thanks for this video
Great video solved my window problem now all are working thanks so much .
Glad it helped. Congrats on a good repair and thanks for the comment.
Thank you for this video. Saved me about $160. I didn't do it exactly as done in video. I used the toothpaste method but didn't use the recommended deoxidizer as I didn't want to take a trip to the parts store. Instead I used mass air flow sensor cleaner and wet a q tip to clean toothpaste and terminal's. And sprayed all circuit boards with maf sensor cleaner. My window works now. Well worth the time it took about 30 min.
sean ward: I'm glad the video helped out. Thanks for sharing and congrats on a job well done.
Pp
Thank you sir
This definitely did the trick follow him step by step it works like brand new
I very much appreciate your video and tutorial. It worked!
Congrats on a good repair. I'm glad it helped and thanks for sharing.
This was perfect.. I followed your video step by step and now my 2013 Tahoe window goes up and the window goes down. Thank you!
TheBieberFix !: You're welcome! I'm glad the video helped out. Thanks for the comment and for sharing.
Great video and very thorough. I wonder if this will work on my Olds 2001 Aurora ?
I would think so, as it's a General Motors car, and the principles are pretty much
the same, in that it involves cleaning the contacts. What do you think ? It's really
quite a sophisticated car for the era it was made in. I wonder if I can do this myself,
as I don't have a lot of small screw drivers etc. Bye the way, I did replace 2 window
regulators with motors over the last 3 years. In those cases the motors all worked
but the cables got tangled and ruined. In these cases the windows fell down to half
open, and in both cases I could hear the motors trying to move the window. In my
case right now, I press the Master Driver's side switch, and "nothing" at all, so I
believe it's the switch. Thanks from Canada.
Grant P: I'm glad you liked the video. I have not removed or serviced the Olds Aurora Master switches. Even though they look pretty different on the out side with the toggle action, they may have similar internals as you say. It appears you don't even need a screw driver to get into it, just snaps. But once inside, you will likely need drivers to remove the circuit boards and expose the contacts for cleaning. Good luck with the project and thanks for the comment.
Appreciate you so much! Fixed my driver window that randomly went out on my 14 Tahoe. 👍🏼👍🏼
Glad it helped, Congrats on a good repair and thanks for sharing.
Interesting. The driver window on my ‘14 Tahoe also randomly went out a few days ago. Looks like I got an additional weekend project 🙄
This was AWESOME THANK YOU IT WORKED!!!
Glad it helped. Thanks for the comment.

You're welcome. I'm glad it helped. Thanks for the comment.
Thank you so much. You are the MAN
Glad I could help. Thanks for sharing.
Perfect solution for the issue I had on my 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe.
All the switches/buttons worked on the master door switch except the driver window. My driver window was stuck in the up position. After doing this, everything worked, as it should.
Thanks.
Brian Matsumoto: You're welcome, I'm glad it helped. Congratulations on a job well done fixing it.
Worked perfect! Thank you so much!
Cannibal94: I'm glad it helped and congratulations on a job well done!

Fantastic video!! Thanks for sharing this information it worked great!!
You're welcome! I'm glad it helped you. Congrats on a good repair.
Hello, I know this videos is a couple of years old, but I cleaned the switch assembly and still a no go. I took the switch apart again and tried just using the rubber pad with the contacts to see if the windows would work and sure enough they did. do you have any advice? the mechanical switches move fine and I see the plungers going down when I toggle them.
M Phillips: Good job on cleaning and also on checking to see that it works if you press directly on the plunger. I did get the rubber pad laid down wrong once and it caused the same problem you describe. I just re-installed everything paying extra care to alignment and it worked. It's also easier than you think to get one or two of the plungers inserted wrong. It's worth a look anyway. Then just make sure everything lays down around the screw posts and lays flat before putting the screws. After the circuit board is laid down but before the screws are in is when it's good to check the button function to be sure the plungers are getting the full action on the rubber pad. Sometimes something gets in there and spaces the board too far from the buttons for the plungers to engage. Good luck with it.
Did this repair on the side of the road with the window stuck down. I used a pencil eraser to "clean" the contacts. It didn't make them look perfect but the window rolled up.
I'm glad it helped and I love a good repair story. Thanks for sharing.
Your video was great! I did exactly what you said but the passenger window still won't function. Any suggestions?
Jay Bee: I'm glad you liked the video and I'll try to help you. I've had to go back inside a second time on these switches but before you do, let me ask a couple questions. 1-Were there other windows not working before you cleaned the switch that are working now? 2-Does the passenger window work with its own switch? If yes to both, then you will likely have success going in a second time and focusing on the particular contact that controls the window that is still not working. Sometimes the film that is blocking the switch contact is stubborn and does not come off the first try. The final rinse after scrubbing should be rubbing alcohol or DeOxit. When you go back in, you may also see something else that explains why the window isn't responding. I hope that helps you.
A new suscriber 👍🏻
sulako 81: Thanks for the sub!
Thank you! It worked great 👍
You're welcome. I'm glad it helped. Great job on the repair and thanks for sharing.
This helped perfect
Glad to help and congrats on a good repair. Thanks for sharing.
I have a 2012 GMC Yukon Denali and the driver window is the only one that doesn’t work do you think cleaning it will help or should I replace the whole switch
stephanie perez: I fix everything so I'm a bit biased. If you're not comfortable with the project, they're not too expensive new. You could replace it with a new one and someone willing to fix yours would probably pay you something for it on AMZN or Ebay if it still looks good.
Thanks for the very informative video.
Link Sanders: I'm glad it was helpful. Thanks for the comment and for sharing.
My driverside master switch panel does not let down any of my windows,the lights on the panel are not on,and the left signal light on the side mirror not working....i replaced the whole switch panel with a new one from O'Reilly's and its still not working....the fuses hv been checked.... I've also heard u hv to replace it with oem master switch part
We'll assume all windows work with their own door switches so we know they're working. If so, since you checked fuses then it's likely wiring. These vehicles are sometimes known to have wire damage within the harness loom that passes from the vehicle to the door . Over time and door use, some of the wires in there can eventually break inside their insulation from repeated bending. Agitating the wires while everything is powered up might reveal broken wires by giving intermittent function while agitating the wire loom. Once you open the rubber boot the wires are housed in, and you can put an eye on them; you should be able to identify and repair the damaged wire(s). Let us know what you find.
@@ScubaMoto thanks for responding....I'll give an update soon
So all the switches on the master stopped working will this help or should I check something else ?
Team KYC: If it all went out at the same time (and you didn't just dump a milkshake on it) then I would guess you have wire damage within the loom that passes from the door to the vehicle. Over time and door use, the wires in there can eventually break. Once you open the rubber boot they're housed in, and you can put an eye on them; you should be able to see the damaged wire(s). Let us know what you find.
@@ScubaMoto yeah after spending more time seeing what was wrong I noticed that the seat warmer and the self adjustable seat buttons didn’t work also the radio wouldn’t turn off after opening the door. So definitely the wires might be causing the problem :/
Thank you so much sir!
Most welcome! Thanks for the comment and for sharing.
Thank you so much

I have a 07 Yukon my driver side window does not have power I have power to the regulator motor I powered it by adding Direct current with a 12-volt battery from a drill and it works well it goes up and down it has power but I am not having power with the switch driver side connected any ideas where to find the fuse for this
Miguel Hernandez: The driver window power runs from a circuit breaker on the cabin fuse box. Since you tested the motor is okay, you may have a wire in the door jam that is broken within its insulation. The break can occur from repeated bending from opening/closing the door. You can try getting lucky testing for this by wiggling the wire while hitting the window switch gives any results. You can also check for power coming from the circuit breaker labeled "LT DR" in the fuse box. That box is located under a panel on the left side of the dash. You can see the panel when the door is open. The panel is just held on by friction tabs and can by pried with a trim removal tool or any slim flat bar. I hope that helps.
I have a question...lol my plastic doorhandles inside the truck crack how do I fix that???
Steve Morgan: That's a very common problem with these crappy door handles. The dealer fix often requires replacing too much of the door panel since the handles are integral to the panels. Depending on how far gone the handle is, you can use glue and heavy wire or rod to re-form the part of the handle that has broken. The rod needs to be long enough to bridge between the remaining healthy parts of the handle while hopefully not being too visible. What worked for me was embedding pieces of clothing hanger rod surrounded by hot glue. I made a temporary form to contain the hot glue while it dried around the hanger rod and also tied to the remaining broken handle. It was plenty strong when it dried. Think reinforced concrete. I was actually able to do it in a way that is not visible when looking down at the handle. Good luck and let us know how it goes.
Guess I have a weekend project now lol
Tanks u save me I fixed tanks to you
tito tito: I'm glad the video was helpful. Thank you for the comment and for sharing.
I'm gonna give this a shot before I drop a few hundred off with the dealer.
Wish me luck.
I'll get back to ya with the results ,👍
Keep in mind that some of these trucks are known to have issues with internal wire fail within the harness between the truck and the door where the harness repeatedly bends. Although I have not seen it, I know it happens and many have reported it. If your switch cleanup doesn't improve things then the next step is to confirm wire integrity. Good luck with it.
Can you remove the buttons?
David Hernandez: Yes, I believe they snap on at the rocker point. I have not done it and I would use great caution in releasing the rocker. Good luck with it.
Nice
If need to reprogram the switch
@stevewalters8139
Thank you so much! I had my drivers window switch go bad, ordered a new one for $150 and then nothing worked except the driver window! After making some calls I found out that you need to bring it to a dealer to program the module to your vehicle. One hours labor at $185 an hour. You literally saved me over $300. Thank you so much.
You're welcome. I'm so glad it helped. Great job on the repair and thanks for sharing the great story.
Thank you sir.
Most welcome
