I have a 1987 Lincoln Town Car and none of the window controls work except one. The main controls on the drivers door only activates one of the windows. None of the other controls work. What should I look for and what could possibly be the problem?

The window that does work, will it work from both the driver's door and the door it is on?

It is either the motor or the switch mounted on the door. You can remove the working switch and replace one of the ones that do not work and see if that fixes that door.

More likely to be internal switch corrosion and/or wire breaks than the motors themselves.

Test the switch outputs from the driver's door, then at the passenger doors, in and out.
