What's up guy?
Hoping someone might have some insight to window switches that have stopped working..mirrors don't fold/unfold...
Only thing I can think is when I wash the car on Wednesday water might have gotten into the electricals some how!?

I took it to Toyota (supra tech wasn't on staff today) but the tech asked if the alarm had gone off when they were tuning my car..
The alarm did go off but only after the flash when I tried locking the car but the tuner forgot to pull the dongle out of the obd2 port...
The tech at Toyota said that might have caused damage to something...I find this hard to believe, especially because it's been a month since the cars been flashed...
He said no power is getting to the switches...

Would love to hear thoughts on what might be going on...
Hoping it's just moisture somewhere...

TIA Steve

Unfortunately the Toyota tech said he checked the fuses...
But he was able to get the mirrors unfolded somehow...
He said he had know idea how he did it?

Thanks for the thought though...

I found out recently that if the adjustment toggle is on the passenger side, then it won't tilt down for backing up.

I wish it was only the mirror adjustment....

This happens about 50% of the time when I wash the car. There was a thread on here a while back with people experiencing the same thing. Usually fixes itself within a day.

Cool...I hope so...but it's been 3 days since I washed the car...
Hoping the mhd dongle didn't damage anything like the Toyota tech said could've happened..

im willing to bet that’s it. Depending on what the weather has been like in your area since you washed it could be a factor. Sometimes it’s just one side, sometimes it’s both sides (mirrors / windows / etc).

Thanks for thoughts..

Soooooo...
Everything decided to work this morning...wtf...guess it was water shorting things out...

Steve
I would find where the leak is. Not normal for water to get in and shorts stuff out. Wouldn't want a bigger shortage in the future.

my car is 2 weeks old, I'm having the same issue, all functions work on the switches on the drivers side door (pass windows, power lock, power unlock, mirror adjustment, mirror folding) except the drivers window. Any suggestions? The driver's window is stuck with a 1/2" crack opening, I can't roll it down or close it completely.

Did you ever find an answer to this?
