My power windows dont on the passenger side of my ceira. The right-rear doesnt work at all from the master switch or from the right-rear and the front passenger only goes down from passenger side but does nothing from the master. Could it be the master switch? Or is it something else?
thanks for any imput.

It could simply be the master switch, or it could be a shorted/broken wire. First thing to do would be to take the switch out of the door panel, get a test light or voltmeter/multimeter, and test whether or not you're getting voltage sent when you press the window switch. If not, then you know it's the switch. So the right rear doesn't work from the master or it's separate switch? Could be the right rear switch, or it could possibly be the motor. Once again, check if voltage is getting sent when you press the switch.

You can get replacement window switches from http://www.gmpartsdirect.com They are much cheaper then my local dealer. Highly recommend them.

I'll try and get a wiring diagram up if I can tomorrow afternoon.

Here's the wiring diagram, it requires Adobe Acrobat to display it...image got inverted when converting to PDF to post it, but it's still readable. You can rotate it and use zoom too...make it a little easier to read.

Also, why do you have your profile set as an SC? That's a Super Coupe, meaning two door! :wink:

i was unsure of what the international was labeled as so i just put SC.
I could just say INTL.

Added Cutlass Ciera International (along with other Ciera trim levels)
So you can change it to the correct one now.
