Default Anything electric

My right window is off track. Driver side window works well back. Back windows don't work at all, but there's a fuse missing from them. the brake lights weren't working but I figured out what was wrong with them. Somebody forced a double filament in where the single filament goes. None of the tail lights were working on the right hand side but I traced that to a bad ground. The motor is running hot. The water pump is leaking, the radiator is cool on one side and hot on the other, and the fan clutch doesn't seem to be working properly.

Rear windows don't work , haven't checked why as front work good. Interior lights too, at least in front, one in the far back works good . Haven't tried cruise yet.

Fun as heck to drive though! I get comments every time I take it out.

for your rear windows i would suggest taking apart the switches and just giving all the contacts a good clean, the window switches are very basic. i did this and went from having 1 window working to all 4 working perfectly! also a quick test would be to plug a known working switch into the rear window switch wire connector to rule it out at least. a quick google search on how to clean the switch is all i needed to point me in the right direction. but dont forget to re grease the “rocker” pins if you do!

Also FYI, there is a button which is the child lock on the rear windows, make sure it's off or not sticking.
I had to fix both rear window rollers with a washer, works well enough since they don't get used often.
Now my alternator just died so will replace it along with the serpentine and tensioner.

Don't have any forward gears, only reverse. Just went over speed humb and no gears except Reverse. It works perfectly. Change filter, oil, xyz switch. Changed selinoids. No luck finding forward. You can hear it goes into gear but not moving.
