Default Power window switches not working

I have an '02 5.9 AWD Durango. The drivers door switch will raise and lower all windows, but none of the other switches will operate the windows. I am thinking that the lockout switch is somehow broke, as it seems odd that all 3 other switches are broken. Hints/tips/suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!!!

I made a jumper to bypass the lockout switch. Took a total of 5 minutes.

I don't have small children to worry about rolling down the windows so it didn't matter to me if the lockout switch worked or not.

It sounds like you have figured it out. The only thing you can do other than replace the switch panel in the drivers door is to turn the lock out on and off and test try another switch in between until they work or you run out of patience or do what mastec said.

your lockout switch is bad, just do a jumper or buy a new master control panel (drivers door panel)

Awesome! What a quick response time! Where did you pick up the splicers and what gauge wire should I use for the jumper? Will probably give this a shot tomorrow. Thanks again for the quick and spot on response!!!

similar gauge wire to whats in there should be fine (or just get a roll of pickup wire from radio shack, they should also sell all the connectors you need)

The wire is 18 gauge, I picked up the wire and splicers at Walmart for a few bucks.
