We have a 1995 nissan maxima with electrical issues. The power windows except the drivers side doesnt work. Also the radio, power locks, visor lights and security system stopped working, we have checked all the fuses with a multi meter- im not sure if this is relevant or not but my wife had to jumo the car off and the cables were put on wrong for just a second, and she switched them right away but this all happened shortly after that. Help! We have no idea what else to try.

I suspect these are not related so let's start with the power window.

Basically, we are going to have to start with checking the power at the motor and find out if it is there.

I am attaching the wiring diagram below that will help with this but if we have power at the motor when the switch is pressed then the motor is the issue.

If there is no power, then we need to go back to the switch and check there next.

I would suggest fixing this first and then if the other issues are not fixed, we can move onto them.

Please run through this and let me know what you find, and we can take the next steps.

Thanks
