Default Window and locks

My windows do not work when a passenger tries to lower the window but from the driver door all windows work... Also locking my car the driver side doesn't lock but the passenger side does.
Any ideas?

im guessin bad switches, or bad wiring. use a DVOM or test light to check grounds and continuity of the wires on the window and door lock circuits

Try this link for your windows. The only thing is DO NOT use the paper clip like they say in the write up.

Seconding this. My '97 did exactly what you describe and I followed the instructions in that link. Well, just about, I was a bit cleaner about it and spliced those wires together. Works like a treat if you don't care about your lockout switch, as that's what this bypasses.

I do care about my lock switches, is there something I can do to fix them both with this video
