Default Can't open passenger side windows from driver's side??

well for some reason today my windows on my passenger side wouldn't open from the driver's seat... they'll open with the switch on their respective doors but i can't control them from the driver's seat... anyone know what's wrong???

the lock window switch actually makes it so that the passenger windows can't be opened from the passenger doors... i actually can't open them from the driver's door

that happened to me not too long ago, you need to lower all the windows by pressing the unlock key on your remote to reset all the windows,no problem after I did that.

ok here is what you have to do........go to each window and press auto down an auto up individually (not from driver switch) you have to go each door to do this, after you do this it will work again in the driver switch

That doesn't sound right. I seemed to remember that you were supposed to open the window a bit, close it, and then hold the switch in the "close" position for a few seconds.

Like CAIFAN_64 said, if all else fails, it's in the owners manual.
