Default Passenger side window and lock not working on 2008 H3
Any ideas why the window and door locks would quit on a 2008 H3?

Swap the door switch - get cheap one on amazon or ebay from china around 30 bucks.
I do so last week on my 2006 H3.

Best regards and merry x-mas from Germany

Have you disconnected the battery recently?? Do you still have the crappy POS OEM Battery Terminal Connectors?? If so, hack them off and replace with a quality aftermarket set like Stingers or your favorite brand.

Know problem, all H3/H3T Battery Terminal Connectors are junk, and lead to all kinds of electrical Gremlins.

thanks, I’ll try that. I tightened the so-called connectors and was surprised at how flimsy they were.

I’ll try new switches. Didn’t think both would go at the same time but maybe they’re combined somehow.

Lifted out the switch panel and the connector was not attached. Works fine.
moral of the story; don’t be stupid.
