Q: Windows just stopped working
The windows would stop working at times, then one day stopped all together. I replaced relay fuse, but still nothing. I didn't hear and sounds but my wife said that she smelled bring wires or something like it one night while getting something out of the car. A few days later they went out all at the same time. Can someone please help?
My car has an automatic transmission.
