So I had the master lock on, on my windows so the kids wouldn't play with the windows and now I unlocked it and now all 3 windows except the drivers side won't go down. I can hear all of them clicking when I try to open them but they don't move. The fuses are fine. What is the problem? And how much will it cost to repair it? What cased this to happen? Thank you!

    It's hard to know exactly what it is before performing a few tests on the window circuit, but that button controls some type of relay that feeds power to the 3 window switches, and I suspect that relay or the wiring is the issue.
    I suspect a shop will charge you an hour of labor to look into this. So about $100 or so.

    Your master switch is bad. A well known problem with Honda. You can fix yourself. I believe new switch about $120 online.

    Where is the best place to get replacement Honda parts like this master switch. I have a 2005 Accord Sedan and it sounds as though this may be the issue with it.
