Default Electrical Gremlin... windows, locks and mirrors

Lately I've been having issues with my windows, door locks and power mirrors not working. Here are the symptoms;

What works;
Driver window
Sunroof
Key fob unlock/lock
(Also all of the doors unlock when I open the door)

What does NOT work;
All passenger windows (they were working intermittently before but now none of them work)
Door locks from any panel (Sometimes I can unlock the doors but can never lock them)
Side view mirror controls

Has anyone had any problems like this with your GX? Seems like it could be a faulty ecu. Plan on removing the door this weekend to inspect everything.

Any help would be appreciated before Im forced to pay the $100 diagnosis fee at Toyota!

Thank you!

Before digging in to all that. I would try to disconnect the negative battery terminal and than initialize the windows.

Who knows might start working again.

Look at this thread:

Did that a few times already. Pulling the door panel tomorrow to hopefully figure something out.

Scat,

Do you have an electrical wiring diagram? Check your grounds and also pull the master switch and inspect. It's real easy to get water in the master switch, which could explain some of your issue.

Also, is the window lock on?
