OMG 🐶, as a former Control Data Institute grad, that is the most detailed, thorough, educational troubleshooting circuit diagnosis I've ever seen - even better than my instructors back in the day! I can't see anything that you didn't do in your troubleshooting techniques. For you having both mechanical & electrical backgrounds you're an invaluable resource - exquisite training/teaching skills! Hopefully others gained comprehension on how a full circuit works to supply voltage ⚡ & direct current (DC) to their respective devices to make them operate!!

[@BigDog50001]

I appreciate the comment, thank you!

[@dallasnelson4999]

SUPER HELPFUL. I was really not excited when he showed all the wiring diagrams, but he did an excellent job explaining it all. Very thorough, made it easy to understand. Fantastic video.

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks 👍!

[@wendyhimongala7100]

Thank you so much! Been divorced a few years and having to watch videos to do things I used to not have to do sure helps with someone like you sharing instructions… I was also able to charge my AC on my Honda. Yay!

[@joshuam.6404]

This is a fantastic explanation of the diagrams and thought-process, thanks!

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks 👍!

[@ronlai4802]

Hi, you can swap the switch with other window for quick diagnostic. The switches all the same except the master switch

[@marlacampbell6935]

Absolutely love the video Best explanation I’ve ever seen. Thank you

[@45AMT]

Dave you did an awesome job breaking it down stop by step. Great informative video! Hope you're having a great Thanksgiving!

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks 👍!

[@shirmworm]

Happy Thanksgiving!!! Grateful for you and all you do to help us!!!

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks, same to you!

[@jgeorges3061]

Appreciate the content and great approach and thought process thanks for sharing.

[@BigDog50001]

Thank you for the comment 👍!

[@nicolenorris8991]

Great video. Thank you for taking the time to explain.

[@Alberto-fk9zl]

Really thanks! My problem is that only the piloto window works, you said that probably the problem is that the main switch on the right of the diagram going to ground is not working 5:37 . Where can I find It phisically on the car? And how can I fix it?

[@dsablk1]

Great video Bog Dog. I have a question. While doing the second series of the switch test on the white wire(press up and down) I did not get a voltage drop. Is that an indication of a bad switch?

[@foreverwood1963]

Dave I have a question that I hope you can answer for me. I have a 2004 Ford F150 that has a driver side window that won't go up or down. When I tested all my switches all test good in the up a down position except the driver's switch. I'm puzzled because I saw somewhere on KZbin that said those with the automatic down switch has weird circuitry but he didn't explain that part. Anyway the up circuit works as it should showing power on the up button but the down wire only shows power on the up as well and not on the down. Of course I was hoping I had a bad switch versus a bad motor/regulator, but I was wondering if that particular switch had any kinda power feed from elsewhere when I hit down to complete the circuit. That didn't make sense to me but having power on up on both sides made me wonder if there's some short to power. I took the door panel off and gave those wire direct current bypassing the switch and still nothing I only hear a click. Any thoughts?

[@tyronesart]

Love your channel

[@steverherb]

What about a faulty motor for the power window? How do you replace it?

[@richardfabrizio8998]

Impressive diag. I got a feeling it’s the regulator, we’ll see

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks 👍!

[@HotRod-wv4vm]

Happy thanksgiving to you and everyone

[@BigDog50001]

Same to you!

[@Nismo2868]

I am having a similar problem with an 06 coupe in that after replacing the regulator, the switch is not winding the window up or down, but putting direct current to it will run the regulator, what would you suggest?

[@miguelfilho8547]

What would be the case if all the windows suddently stoped working ? All fuses/ relays are OK

[@X2Gibbo]

Thanks for your excellent video, Same issue on my 2008 honda civic right rear window

[@AM-wt8qi]

What would fault be if front passenger window works on passenger door switch but not at drivers door switch . Had key on for while and drained battery . Then after had this problem . Does it just need reset ?

[@vickyh414]

my window makes a sound when i try to open it but it doesn’t open. i previously had water in the door from the rain and i drained it. i’m not sure how to fix it because it won’t open after that happened

[@Mahal-7asani]

Hi ! I am writing to you from KSA I have 1999 Honda civic, i cleaned it from inside by water after that I have a lot of electrical problems . One of them is the radio . It's not start normally when you open the switch until you switch on the dash lights. Can you help me to fix this problem. I have a diploma in electronics but i don't know the circuit diagram for this car and i hope you to help me !

[@pabllosee]

It's common failure with 8th gen Civic's. I've troubleshooted my Civic with that issue and also find out it's window regulator motor problem. After disassembling gearbox and motor everything whose looking fine and motor started working again. So I've assembled everything back again and power windows worked... for few days and stopped working again. As long window is closed it's not bothering me that much.

[@arzelaascoli9189]

I had a similar thing happen to me on an accord. Replaced regulator, worked for a while, then stopped working. Turned out the connector to the regulater was "crusty". Deoxed and cleaned that. Been working fine since.

[@BigDog50001]

It's a common failure item on many Honda models. Thanks for the comment!

[@lgd8788]

thanks a lot, sensei.

[@hussainamjad9116]

Good work

[@EasternHawk]

@Big Dog50001 can i have a link to this diagram pls

[@jakszu4736]

Where to search, if BOTH rear windows don't work, while the passanger window DO work? Since passanger window DO work, the problem is not in the "master" switch...

[@gurpalgaming1057]

purple wire is not working my window only goes to one direction
