Check the following:

0) Check the fuses *AND* the circuit breakers near your left knee when you're sitting behind the wheel.

  1. Make sure the lockout button is not pressed on the window controls on the driver's door.
  2. Turn on the ignition key. Open one of the rear doors. WHILE HOLDING THE BUTTON DOWN, !!SLAM!! the door.
  3. Remove the door panel. Using a voltmeter, make sure that you have power when the button is depressed. If this works, you may have to replace the motor.
  4. On my car, this turned out to be a "mechanical" problem. Disassembling the door from the inside and lubricating the window mechanisms solved it.
