Those circuits use different ground applications. The power door lock is grounded at the drivers door while the power windows are grounded via the window motor fasteners.Power door locks: Try switching the switches. If the passenger sides works after the switch and the drivers doesn't, you've got a bad switch. Otherwise you'll need to break out the volt meter and test for power. You could have a bad or sticking solenoid.Power windows: You need to pull the door panel and measure for voltages at the motor. Work your way back to the switch. Sometimes a wire pulls out of the switch if someone has monkeyed with it. So, visually check the switch for a pulled wired. Note the color of the wires going to that side of the door.
I had a loose wire on the window switch,,,,, the window would go down but not up.............The only way Russ,,, could find it,,,,,,,was the volt meter...............
The solenoid is located on the back door edge.....under where the door stickers would be. You should see two rivets one above the other. That's what's holding the solenoid to the door.As far as the window is concerned, did you clean and grease the tracks? Did you run a ground wire from one of the motor mounts through the boot to a suitable ground point on the chassis? Sounds like the switch is doing its job. You are sticking or you don't have a proper ground.
