I have a 2014 Chevy Silverado. My driver side window works fine. My passenger side window only works for the passenger side switch. My rear windows do not work at all. I replaced the switch and have the same problem. Any ideas I’m at a loss?

Double check the "Child Safety Switch" for the windows to make sure that it's not set.

 

Check fuses, and ohm wires from switches to window motor.

Check the wires in the door jamb for breaks. Try grabbing the rubber boots and moving it around while operating the switches to see if they start working.

 

 

1. Test the driver's window switch power and ground feeds. 

 

2. Check for wire breaks in the door jamb boot. 

 

3. If there is low/no voltage on the Yellow wire in terminal 43 at the switch, cut the Yellow wire in terminal 22 in the X2 connector at the Body Control Module (BCM). 

 

4. Confirm there are 12 volts on the Yellow wire on the BCM side of the cut. 

 

5. If there are 12 volts, check for an open in the Yellow wire between the BCM and the driver power window switch.

You're welcome. I see that all the time at work. Probably best to add enough wire so your splices aren't in the bend.

Thanks for posting this topic. I had the exact same symptoms. I thought it was the switch also. Them I found this site. Found the same broken wires in the door jam harness.  Very helpful.  Thank you very much.

I have the same symptoms, but my wire harness looks good, except the thick black wire is cut and exposed some. Ordering a new harness now, hoping to have positive results.

Yup, this.

Is this a common problem on the K2’s?

I know this post is from 2020 but when my 2018 was in the shop in July for this, the GM dealer said it was becoming more increasingly common.  As well as the hood sensor/switch failing.

So it ends up that while I found a slice in the black ground wire in the main door harness, I actually only needed to replace fuse #8 in the drivers side fuse panel to get everything working again. Thanks.

I have a 2018 Silverado. The passenger window will not roll down from the passenger door switch or the drivers door switch. All of the other windows work from their respective switch and the drivers panel. I replaced the switch and the window motor assembly (both OEM) but the problem remains. Additionally, the door ajar light is on continuously. I checked the fuses and the wiring and I can’t find any issues. Any advice?

Have you run a scan with a scan tool?
Also, have you checked all grounds (yeah, I know, always the easy answer without solving the problem)
Still, a scan would probably find the fault, might be a legacy code that needs a reset.

 I have a early model 2014 Chevy Silverado and the drivers side windows have stopped working as well as the stereo stays on after the vehicle is shut off (opening door does not cancel the radio) I have replaced the window switch, door wiring harness, and the latch on the drivers door. I have also checked all fuses and they are good any ideas where to look next.

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.

      "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
