My driver side window will not roll down when I press the switch nothing happens it only goes down when it is really hot outside. Now the back door stopped working a few days ago. When I press the switch on that side it does a clicking noise but will not roll down.

Good morning.

Do all the other windows work from the master switch?

Is this a two or four door?

It is a four door. The windows that only work with the master switch is the passenger side and the rear window behind the passenger The driver side only works when the weather hits one hundred degrees and the one behind the driver side stopped working a few weeks ago it just does a clicking sound.

Okay, do you have a voltmeter to do some checks to see if voltage is going to the motor?

Yeah I have a voltmeter.
When I bought the car the driver window did not roll down and also the doors would not lock with the master switch I have to lock the car manually. I bought a master switch from Amazon thinking it was that and it was not.

Need to verify power to each switch to be sure there is available power. Then you need to check for voltage going to the motors when the switch commands up and down.
