Okay so i picked up this car a fwe weeks ago, its a big project but its one thing at a time, as for my power windows neither the right or left windows go down, Ive been told that its uncommon for both regulators to go, that it would possibly be the amplifier. ive tired to find a diagram to track down this module but im having NO luck, can someone point me in the right direction so i can figure this out, Much appreciated!

Before anything. Check fuses.

If both windows don't work. There is a chance its the driver window switch.

That window control box in the driver door has nothing to do with the passenger window.

For a wiring diagram, reference the FSM. Search S13 or S14 FSM on google.

I would jump the regulators and see if they work if tou have an s13 its not uncommon for both of them to go on a 20year old car

You need an out side power source like a battery charger put it on low hook it up and see if they work like that you can't leave it on there for long or you'll burn them out but that's how you find out if they work

Would a 12 volt work?

It should and I forgot its all fused so don't really matter how long you keep it on there cuz if its gettin to much power the fuse will just blow. But yeah if it works when you then its your electric if noting happens its your regulators

i've had this same problem, it turned out to be the amp(im not sure of its exact name, amp, relay, regulator) i would hear it click everytime i pushed the window button. i remember there being a write up about this, with pictures, step by step how to fix it on zilvia. i could smell the burnt solder once i removed it from its little plastic box, soldered the burnt spot and it was good to go. 2 years later it still works like a champ. if you need pictures or cant find the write up just lemme know and i can walk you through it or go explain a little better
