Not to ask a dumb question, but do you have the window lock engaged on the driver door control? That makes it so that only the driver can control the windows. I have mine engaged so my kids can't mess with them.

Mine have started having trouble from the driver control lately. But I'm pretty sure it is just a loose connection inside that control. Once I pull off the door panel to replace my speakers I will fix that too.

i have mine engaged so my wife doesn't play with the window....lol
I hate when people get in my vehicles and start to play with everything. if I want the windows down, then i will put them down. Nothing more annoying than one window down and not another. The pressure kills my ears.

so that is what that button is , haha jk that was the first thing i tried

i think it might be a fuse or loose connection but i have no idea where to start looking

its not the end of the world because i can still roll em all down from my panel, it would be another story if i couldn't, i hardly ever drive with all 4 windows up

Power windows are pretty finicky but I would bet something (loose connection or faulty window lock switch) causing it to think the widows were locked thus only working at the drivers side. I would start at the drivers switch panel maybe.

Same problem here, it's been like that for a long time, I just live with it. It would be nice to fix it though. I was thinking the same thing, about the faulty lock button. My cruise control hasn't worked either, ever since I bought the truck.
