passenger windows broken? Mechanic says window motors?
So i've been looking around before posting this and haven't quite found anybody with a similar issue. I own a 2005 TSX MT with about 132k miles on it. I have had a few problems in the past but were easily repaired since it was under warranty.
About 6 months ago, the windows stopped working... The passenger front, and both rear windows will not go up/or down. I've checked to see if the "window lock" button was engaged, but it wasn't. I have also taken off the door panel and reset the wire connection between the switch. I've checked fuses and still no luck...
The mechanic i brought my car into when i had other maintenance done said the window motors are shot...But i find it hard to believe that ALL 3 go at the same exact time! I can imagine one then another, but all 3 all at the same time seemed a bit strange to me...
Does anybody know what this issues solution is?

Nonsense, I'm a mechanic myself and we get plenty of people coming from other shops with issues like this. Did you see them remove the switch and test it? A faulty master switch can cause all other windows not to work. Test out another master window switch from an 04-08 TSX or 03-07 Accord. You can pop it out and replace it yourself, or borrow a friends and test from there.
Now don't get me wrong it is possible all 3 can be shot, but VERY unlikely in that manner seeing the circumstances.

thanks
yeah, i appreciate your response and knowing you're a mechanic gives me comfort...
i forgot to add that when using the switch on the driver's side, the window makes a clicking sound on the passenger door but still doesn't do anything....
