Help! Where are the fuses for my power windows?

Post by gremlinkurst »

I have a 2006 Subaru Baja Sport pickup. My driver-side back, and both passenger-side windows have stopped working, and the passenger back window is stuck OPEN. I have it covered with a garbage bag secured with black Gorilla Tape. I've located two fuse panels, one in the engine compartment on the driver side, and the other under and to the left of the steering wheel. Both panel covers have ostensibly helpful labels, but I can find nothing about the damned windows.

Anybody have an idea?

Did you try pressing the Window Lock button on the driver's control panel? That disables the front passenger window and both rear windows.

I agree. So long as I’m reading the diagrams correctly, it appears there’s only one fuse for all of the windows so if the driver front still operates, the issue isn’t the fuse. Start with the easy stuff (above suggestion) first and report back if your issue is not resolved.

My truck doesn't have a window lock button; there is only a capped port where one might be.

The "above suggestion" doesn't apply, as my truck hasn't any window lock button. Weird that the driver's window still works while the others don't...and I still don't know where the power windows fuse is, anyway; none of the "informative" panel covers detail such a fuse.

Consider this me "reporting back" on the yet extant issue.

The diagrams show it is fuse no. 18.
