3 of 4 power windows not working

Only the drivers window/switch works. No other window works from any switch. After some web research, I'm going with the window master power module, which is the whole switch assembly in the drivers door.
New from the dealer the part I saw $195, many online Honda sources have it in the $130's.
But I've found a source that uses the OE supplier, with their lifetime warrantee, for $60 shipped!

If you inadvertently turned off the kiddie lockout on the main switch that would kill the 3 passengers windows.

I've seen a few over the years where that lockout switch or circuit goes bad inside the main switch, not real common IMO but it's happened. If the lockout switch or circuit failed, the 3 window switches in the main would lose their ground.
A voltmeter and a good wiring diagram could lead to proving if this is what happened.

If the power window relay (in the dash fuse box) failed to work for whatever reason, that could also leave 3 windows inoperative. Fuses 15, 16, 17 (dash box) would have no power supplied to them if this were the case.

Just some stuff I'd check before spending money. HTH

Turns out that was the problem. Never thought to look at that. In all cars I've had the child lockout switch still allowed the driver window controls to work. Only disabled the individual windows.

Lucky you! Something really easy you thought was going to be a pain!

THANKS!.......That was my problem also.......

Now if someone could solve an intermittent power lock failure problem.....where the powerlock button does nothing.......and sometimes all by itself.........lol

Check the wiring at the door hinge. You might have cracked insulation on some wires and they may make contact some times, and not at other moments. Had that problem on my 99 Civic...(door locks would lock/unlock when moving the door or when hitting bumps, and sometimes would not work at all).
