Default Back power window switches not working

I bought my PT used at around 15000 miles in October. Im at around 20000 now and I just noticed a problem with the back window controls in the back seat.

Neither of them seem to operate the windows. The front switches for the back windows function properly, and I checked to make sure the 'lock the back switches' button was off, but neither of the two back switches is working still.

The windows open fine using the front switches so I know its not the back window motors. It also seems weird that both switches would be bad in the back seat. One, maybe, but seems odd that both would be bad. Is there a fuse or switch or something somewhere that I should know about to engage these two back seat power window controls? Its not a real big problem having them not operate, just more a matter of convience. Thanks!

First, pry out the switch control itself and make sure the wiring is in place. Hopefully, that's your problem.

One fuse supplies power to the front and back switches, so that's not it. Either the "Lockout" switch is bad or, like Crewzin said, it's the wiring harness connection at the rear switches. Hopefully nothings been cut anywhere in between.

This may seem dumb , but did you make sure the window lock switch is off?It is the switch between the widow controls on the dash.
