    Only just got the vehicle?
    had it a while and they stopped 1 by 1?
    had it a while and they all stopped at once?

    One of the offenders, depending on the answers, is the switch assy in the Drivers Door.

    Check the lock switch... IIRC on the early Q's it only locks the other 3 windows and Drivers will work no matter
    The power for the other 3 windows runs thru that switch so even if the other switches and the window motors are OK they won't operate

    Turns out it magically started working again, guessing there was a bit of dirt in the window lock switch. Thanks for the help
