The windows worked when you jumped the windows it sounds like a electrical problem check all your grounds and check to see if you have power at the switch

ONLY WINDOW THAT I GOT TO WORK WAS DRIVERS SIDE. I CONNECTED DIRECTLY TO DRIVERS WINDOW WINDOW MOTOR FROM BATTERY. I TRIED SEVERAL CONNECTIONS ON WINDOW MODULE WHILE WIRED FROM BATTERY BUT NOTHING WORKED, I AM NOT AN ELECTRICAL PERSON SO I JUST GO TRIAL AND ERROR. THOUGHT ABOUT PULLING HARNESS OUT AND PUTTING ANOTHER ONE IN BUT JUST TOO MANY WIRES. THANKS FOR YOUR THOUGHTS!
