Diagnosing the issue
There are a few potential causes for windows not working on an Acura Integra:
The window motor could be faulty. To test this, you would need to remove the door panel to access the motor. If the motor is getting power but not functioning, it likely needs replacing.
There could be an issue with the window switch or wiring. Common problems include faulty switches, loose or damaged wiring. You can use a multimeter to test for power at the switch and motor.
The window regulator could be off track or damaged. This controls the raising and lowering of the window glass. Manually moving the window while operating the switch may help identify this issue.
A fuse could be blown. Check all fuses related to power windows.
