2007 Honda Accord 4 Door SE. Three Power Windows Don't Work From Any Switch.

[@jmorales8742]

I had this issue 2 years ago, I followed a video then to bypass the relay and jus like you explained it eventually drained my battery. I have now been chasing a parasitic drain and it is definitely this. Thank you! You are a master mechanic, your entire process was amazing

[@PhillipBailey]

Yes if you ground that relay permanently it will be energized all the time and the relay will draw around 100mA. Depending on weather conditions and battery capacity I'd estimate 4 to 6 days in summer and 3 to 4 days in winter.

[@joarca1515]

Wonderful video! Great explanation and a lot of wisdom here. Would have love to find this before I burned the passenger rele haha but I fixed the problem with a bridge in the master switch. A wire was burnt probably because of wet

[@mayurgauchan3592]

Worked great on my 07 Accord. I had the other temp fix for it where i shorted the 1 and 3 pin but it caused a parasitic drain on the battery which would die if I didnt use the car for 2 or 3 days. I did get a new and bigger battery but this will definitely help and give me peace of mind. Thank you for a great video!

[@mayurgauchan3592]

I did notice 1 slight issue with this fix, besides the child window lock not working which doesnt bother me. Before this fix, I could use my key fob to open all my windows remotely while walking to my car on a hot day. Now only the driver side window opens with the fob. Still not a big deal, I'd rather that than the slow battery drain. Thx again!

Going to try to finally tackle this problem I have been having with my 2005 Accord V6 once and for all. The car has been sitting in my driveway for 2 years and initially I was starting it up and moving it around during the hot months of last summer until one day this exact problem came to bite me and it rained all in my interior and screwed my back floor and brought mold into the car. I have been taping my windows shut for 2 years now. Praying it's as simple as the fuses not working. I'm going to try them with the bulb tester and inform you on how this works.

Dear Phil, I am a fellow mechanic. I had this problem with my accord. My mechanic couldn't figure it out. Your video is great, except for a few things. Most importantly, you should have given some pictures of the part you wired. You went over it for about half a second. Less importantly, you should have shown how you 'tee'd the wires. Otherwise, great video. When I grounded the green and blue cable with the test light like you did, the windows started working.

[@PhillipBailey]

Thanks for the comments. I sometimes forget the details and assume people understand a basic relay and have basic electrical skills. I'll try to be clearer in the future.

[@fyodorberkovich8247]

@@PhillipBailey I was able to figure this out pretty easily, but a visual aide can be very helpful. My diagnostic process was also slightly different than yours. I measured the power at the control pins of my P/W relay with a multimeter. I had no power on the pins. I did not have a relay jumper, but I tested the relay to be good by using a swap test. When I grounded the green/white wire with my test light, I heard the relay clicking. At that point, all the windows worked. Your solution is pretty smart. You're providing a ground to energize the relay, but only when the ignition is on. After looking at the schematics, I understood how simple this job is.

Thanks for the time and effort into making this video, I have this issue on my '07 Accord and will attempt this fix. I'm not that familiar with electronics so forgive what might seem like obvious questions. When you say to "tee into the wires" do you mean to cut the insulation, wrap the wire around and cover with electrical tape, what size spade connectors did you use to attach to the relay, and is there a specific wire gauge to use for the connections?

[@PhillipBailey]

Yes you are correct to T into the wire strip a section of insulation off the wire, wrap the wire around, solder and seal with tape. There's very little current so 16 or 18 gage wire is adequate. Terminals to fit the relay are usually 1/4" female spade red in color. Good luck and let me know how it works for you.

Yes most likely is the switch. If you can find one for a reasonable price I'd go for it. Pop the switch assembly out and you should be able to figure it out. Couple connectors to unplug. Don't have the car here anymore. It could also be a broken wire between the driver door and pillar in that rubber flexible boot. I'd visually check that before ordering the switch. Good luck.

[@kristopherhuber3356]

Phillip, enjoyed your video. I was wondering two things: (1) why go though the trouble of installing a relay to connect pins 1 and 3 of the Power Window Master Switch (see 12:54 of your video). The relay will only close when the car is on. Is there a drain on the battery if you use a simple wire to connect pins 1 and 3 when the car is off? (2) This elegant solution bypasses the child safety switch by putting pin 3 to ground and activating the power window relay (which now gives power to the three passenger windows). But does it also solve the problem that the drivers side window switches where not able to turn on any of the passenger windows? Cheers.

[@PhillipBailey]

The master switch needs to supply a ground to turn on the relay under the dash that supplies power to the passenger switches. The windows all worked fine from the master switch. If you permanently ground the passenger switch relay it will cause a parasitic draw. HTH

[@rohitv.tangellamudi3735]

Great video and very detailed explanation. I have a few questions. Working on 2007 Accord Ex (same layout as yours) How much of an impact would parasitic draw put on the battery for bypassing the window lock switch? I tried connecting pin 20 and pin 3 to only ground when the ignition is on. But it is working when ignition is off and doesn’t work when ignition is on Now with relay, I tried connecting as you described, but the passenger side switches are active even when ignition or off. So For me the parasitic draw is happening with or without relay.

[@PhillipBailey]

Sounds like you've got it wired incorrectly. The relay is to be turned on by the ignition feed and then supply the ground to the under dash relay. Recheck the two grounds. If the relay is turned on all the time it will draw around 100mA which would run the battery down in a few days. Depends on battery state of charge and ambient temperature.

[@rohitv.tangellamudi3735]

@@PhillipBailey but why do you think grounding pin 3 with pin 20 will not work? After all pin 20 gets power when ignition is on and that should ground pin 3. What is the need for relay?

@@rohitv.tangellamudi3735 you can't connect it that way. I'll watch the video again give me a second

[@PhillipBailey]

@@rohitv.tangellamudi3735 pin 20 is ignition switched power or positive. You can't connect it directly to pin 3 which is supposed to be a ground brom the master switch. Tee a wire into pin 20 wire and connect thar to pin 85 of any standard 4 pin relay. Connect pin 86 of the relay to pin 1 at the switch by again teeing into the wire. No when you turn on the key the new relay should click. Tee a wire into pin 3 and connect that to 30 on the relay. Connect 87 of the relay to pin 1 at the switch. Tee it in. You can also connect it to pin 86 of the relay so two wires on the same terminal. The way this works is the ignition power on pin 85 and ground on 86 energizes the electromagnetic coil. This causes the contacts in the relay to mechanically connect pin 30 to 87. This supplies the missing ground from the switch to supply the ground to the under dash relay that feeds power for the three door windows to work. All wires are teed into the respective circuits at thevswitch. 12:20 in this video. Hope this is helpful

Any standard 4 pin relay will work. I'm sorry but don't have a part number. I have dozens of used ones from various vehicles. Most relays only require 100 to 150 mA of current to activate.

[@Chironex_Fleckeri]

Have this issue, 7th gen Accord EX 4dr. I have a theory. The materials used in weatherproofing the windows and creating channels for water to drain down are now getting quite old and warped, and on my year round outdoor-parked car it caused water to pool and drip directly onto the switch(?) in the driver door. I had the habit of opening my window just a crack to get fresh air. It's a great car. Had the VVT assembly changed. The car is going to rust away before the motor and transmission die. I think this is a safety issue, though. Gotta have windows that open

@@Chironex_Fleckeri I would say that any decent tech could do this. The dealer won't because they are worried about liability. Ask around I'm sure there are lots of guys that could do this. It's just a relay and a couple of spliced wires. Alternatively you could search Amazon and Ebay for the switch and install it yourself. As you can see it's not difficult to remove. Buying the part online and installing it yourself will likely be close to what a shop would charge to modify it this way. HTH and good luck.

Great video sir. Sir I have a 2012 Accord I removed The front seats because I was working on the AC system I put it back together the passenger side window lock and window worked a day or two later it’s not working I have checked all my fuses I have checked all my plugs that are unplugged and I can’t seem to find anything the passenger side door lock or window will not work from the master control or from its own control was wondering maybe if you have any recommendations I should try? Thank you sir!!

[@PhillipBailey]

So it's the right front window and door lock that don't work? From the master switch and from the RF switch? If this is the case let me know and I'll look at the circuit.

[@PhillipBailey]

There is a connector called C107 on the right side under the dash and all the wiring to the right door passes through it. The power windows and locks are separate circuits. Fuse B33 feeds the right power window but there is no separate fuse for the rf lock. Look for that connector on the right side of the glovebox. It may not be seated correctly.

[@jimmyraygoza2694]

You rock dude, thanks.

[@4gmEntertainment]

This happening to my 2003 accord but the only power window working is the left back window. Wonder if this fix can work for me?

[@obinsonsniper-el7sw]

Thank you very much 😊

[@sethduffey9538]

Brilliant Sir 👌

[@richardayalin4051]

What type of relay did you use? My Honda just started doing this also

[@PhillipBailey]

@@richardayalin4051 any standard 4 pin relay will work. I used a used relay from a Ram.

[@kingdomgaming1964]

have you ever run into this problem on a 2001 Honda accord lx sedan been trying to fix it for a month and a half have run out of ways and ideas to fix it it is the exact same problem as on this video and where can you find a fuse jumper/relay tester

[@PhillipBailey]

No I have not. I took a look at the schematic and it's quite a bit different. The master switch on the driver door locks out the other doors by removing the ground for them. It does not turn on a relay like this 07. There is a relay under the dash but it's turned on by the Passenger Multiplex Control Unit. This relay feeds all four switches so if your driver switch is working then this relay is good. Check fuses 7, 8 and 16 for power with the ignition on. Do the other three windows work from the driver control switch? There is a white/red wire at the master switch on the driver door that is grounded by the lockout switch to enable the other three windows, Check to make sure you don't have a broken wire between the driver door and A pillar. make sure that the white/red is grounded if not supply a ground to it and see if the three windows start working.

[@finch4708]

Thankyou!

[@JOHNBON2010]

I have honda accord 2006 special edition lx. Front doors windows works but back window not. Should I change only the power switch?

[@PhillipBailey]

You need to check the fuses, then test the circuits to the switch between the door and pillar.

[@whatdadogdoin7531]

Have a 05 v6 Accord with rear right window not moving at all and it seems to be sinking each month. I pressed the switch and there's no clicking sound. The master switch is working cause it lights up when the car is running. But the individual switch for that window doesn't light up. I'm guessing that's not getting power somehow. I've checked the fuse and it's not blown. What might be the issue??

[@PhillipBailey]

This video is not your problem if it only is affecting the right rear window. I'd check the wiring in between the rr door and pillar for broken wires. If the window is gradually dropping it may have a broken regulator.

[@kewlbug]

My inside buttons all work great. The Remote hold "all window" and double click "all unlock" function stopped working. Sorry to ask. Can't find any info. Worth a shot here

[@PhillipBailey]

Do the key fobs still lock and unlock the doors? Do you have more than one fob? Try changing the remote battery?

[@kewlbug]

@@PhillipBailey the battery’s only a few weeks old. Only locks and unlocks the drivers. No window roll down. I do see other things to check now. Relays. Maybe try programming. I suspect maybe is the fob though being 20yrs old.

[@PhillipBailey]

@kewlbug is it the same year as this Accord? Was there any work done recently like battery disconnected? Sounds like a programming issue. I'm wondering if the feature is customizable. Be nice to try another remote to rule it out.

[@kewlbug]

@@PhillipBailey Here's a piece of info, when I start the engine, it auto locks. but cycles twice it sounds like. I would guess my main issue here is a broken connection somewhere. possibly the door jamb.

[@PhillipBailey]

@@kewlbug I seriously doubt it is a wiring problem.

[@doublearon9518]

I’m also not the most familiar with electronics but with your relay bypass what exactly did u do with the wires? I know which ones u used but did you disconnected them from the master control and put them into your bypass and then used another wire to reconnect it to the master control or what

[@PhillipBailey]

at 12:19 in the video is a schematic. All the wires from the relay are spliced into the appropriate wires at the master switch. The existing wires are still connected to the switch. HTH

[@Moneymeham]

@11:23 look at jumper wire .. jumper wire goes from the inside pin from the bottom to the black ⚫️ ground .... on the drawing it's on the other pin so which one is correct!?

[@PhillipBailey]

Either will work but use the drawing as its clearer

[@anthonyordonez-o2361]

i have a 2006 accord where all three work but passenger side doesn’t, does this mean it is the exact same thing or just the fuse?

[@PhillipBailey]

Check the fuses but it's not likely the same problem if only one widow is not working. Check wires between door and pillar.

[@خالدالحازمي-ض2ط]

الكاميرا I have a 2007 Honda Accord, the passenger window is Auto, and when I raise it to the top, Auto, it raises and goes to the middle, then suddenly stops and does not close completely. Why...and thank you

[@PhillipBailey]

@@خالدالحازمي-ض2ط try a relearn on the window. Search for bulletin number 10-011 on line

[@ella_cook]

I have a 2000 Subaru Impreza sport manual. Tonight all 3 went out at the same time. Would this be similar to my problem? My mom gave me her gremlin I followed her to drop her car off at the shop because she had a no start ( starter and or alternator) we pushed the car and she popped the clutch to start it and we boogied over to drop her car off at the shop. and in the parking lot, the parking lot!!! of the mechanic shop at 7:32 on a Saturday 3 of my 4 windows stopped working. I blame her she brought the gremlin with her into my car 🤣🤣

[@PhillipBailey]

Sounds like the child lockout switch on the master switch is off. Are you sure you didn't accidentally turn them off. The circuit is not the same at all.

[@ella_cook]

@@PhillipBailey ☺️ of sources it was that simple 🤣 I have never used it but somehow I managed to depress it that night. Thank for your help

[@andrecooper8368]

Great video.....buy laymans instructions next time.

[@JoseAlves-et3fb]

Where did you get your supplies to do the hookup?

[@PhillipBailey]

I had a used relay. Any standard 4 pin relay will work. You will need about 3 feet of 18 gage wire, 4 female spades that fit the relay some solder and tape.

[@amirudinpuaad5743]

Hi phillip, my driver power lock not working after my brother touch the connector below passanger globebox..other 3 door works fine. Can u advice something please

[@PhillipBailey]

Other than checking that connector you mentioned and for broken wires between the door and A pillar you will need to test the circuits. and actuator in the door.

[@bryanestrella5676]

I have the definitive solution! It does not affect the car's battery

[@robertb8629]

This is the exact problem I'm having with my 2006 Odyssey. Could I also try changing out all the switches from a wrecked Odyssey and swapping it? Or would that switch just blow eventually too?

[@PhillipBailey]

You could try a used driver door switch. On some that's the keyless entry module so if you have remotes they won't work. I doubt its the individual switches as all of them would have to be bad.

[@robertb8629]

@@PhillipBailey right understand. We do have remotes. I'm just unsure of how to do this relay install but I'm a decent parts swapper

[@rogerjoseph2532]

great job

[@rb666-33]

Not a pro here at all, so wondering what relay do I buy? Are all relays the same at auto parts store? What Do I ask for specifically? Thank you!

[@PhillipBailey]

Any standard 4 pin relay will work. Most relays follow a standard pin number format. Google how a relay works to learn how it functions. You can go to a salvage yard to get one from a salvage vehicle if you like.

[@rb666-33]

@@PhillipBailey that works, thank you for getting back to me!

Q: What exactly is the RELAY MODEL/TYPE I need to fix the problem (like this one: AutoZone: Duralast Relay 20742)?

[@PhillipBailey]

Yes that will work.

[@jajajajajajajajaja867]

Couldn't you just run switched power to the factory relay to control it instead of adding another relay?

[@PhillipBailey]

@jajajajajajajajaja867 the relay is switched by a ground from the master switch. There are a few ways to do this including wiring in an auxiliary switch to supply the ground but the operator would have to remember to turn it off or it would drain the battery over a few days. This way it's automatic. Or you could just buy a new switch.
