I had a 99 with the same problem, and suggest you check under the passenger side front carpet. Remove the flat door kick plate, lift up the carpet on the front passenger side floor and you will see a large wiring harness running along the floor, wrapped in black tape. Water and salt gets into this harness and will rot out several wire splices that you will see. Look for wires that run from 2 wires down into one (under black tape.) These are spliced together, and rot out. There was several large gauge wires/splices(windows up and down) and I think 2 very thin wires/splices (lock/unlock) . Even if the wires look connected, give them a good tug, they will come apart and be green with corrosion. This is a very common problem and worth the effort to check out. Repairing these splices fixed both the power windows and locks at the same time. Good luck

Like i said in other post, 95% of the time the left hand power window switch is the problem. simply pry the trim off from the pointy end of it and change switch.

2000 pontiac montana power windows stopped working ,checked fuses,all good ,checked voltage all good except where the up/down switch is the voltage is1.5 it reads 3.5 then goes down 1.5 .any suggestions?...

Manual window crank changeover would mean a different regulator and door panel for each door. It's very common for the wire harness between the A-pillar and the door frame have damaged wires, particularly the system ground wire.Really need to check that circuit! You can supply your own ground to the switch and recheck the operation just to verify and eliminate the harness as an issue.
If you have full battery voltage and a good ground circuit to the pin connector on the master window switch, then it's probably just the switch and the dismantler near you should have one for less than $20.

No power to my front windows all fuses are good

check that the switch that locks the window switches is on. It is a small switch not far from the switch set in the drivers door.

Power window (drivers side) quit working on my 2000 Pontiac Montana. Can't be a fuse issue as the passenger side still works. Any ideas on a fix?

More than likely just a faulty switch. Sometimes you can take them apart and clean them. Or, just go to an auto wrecker and get another one.

No power windows door locks interior lights or key chimes

try checking the pin switches in the door jambs if you have no power to these items with the door open i would lean toward the pin switches being stuck or bad ground or broken not an uncommon problem
