OK this was bound to happen. In the process of me learning how to solder on my car's circuit boards :bonk: and changing the LED color to white, I ran into a snafu. I thought I was doing good changing out the drivers door power panel LED until after I plugged the harness back in and the drivers window rolled down and wouldn't roll back up. The rest of the windows in the car rolled up and down and the AUTO light was now white, but the drivers would not go up. Then after awhile with messin with it, I realized there were little switches under the bigger switches and realized that if they aren't lined up just right, the windows won't work. At some point, After finally getting the drivers window to roll back up, the AUTO light stopped working and now the 3 other windows wont move. Did I just blow a fuse or something or did I really mess up the soldering job on this little circuit board on the door??

The 7.5A PANEL1 fuse under the bottom of the dash drives the power window switch illumination.

The 30A POWER fusible link on the face of the under dash fuse panel drives the power windows.

Hopefully you didn't mess up the switch as they are hard to find, even used, for under $100.

Sorry, In trying to put back the switch the window lock button was pressed Although with my crappy soldering job, the LED came off so is no longer working. I guess Ill wait for help when I find someone to help me with my instrument cluster to help me with the switch. Thanks for the answer, your the man!
