Heather Grew -

Put the new master switch in but now nothing works. And my lights are dim and my truck won't even start.

Everything worked except the drivers side back window and the passenger front windows wouldn't go up or down. I did exactally like the videos showed.

2008 Chevy Silverado 4 Dr extended cab. Won't even start the ignition. And it worked fine before I changed the master switch for all 4 windows, the interior lights are now very dull, the ignition doesn't work, no door locks and none of the window work now...there is only 1 way to put the new switch in right? Now I have a real bucket of worms. Cause I went ahead and took the new master off and put the old one back on. At least with the old one , it started and 2 of the windows worked and the electric locks worked. Now even with the old one back in nothing still works what's so ever.

I’m having a problem where my master rear window switches are rolling down the correct window, but rolling up the opposite windows like for example the right rear window rolls down with the right button, but it has to be rolled up with the left button and vice versa. any ideas?
