    Up under the panel I’ve found fuses for 3 of the windows but not the fourth.
    I’ve looked in the manual and online with no luck. I need to disable the windows for a while due to a recent tint job. Yes, there’s tape on the switches but my wife will find a way...


    Located fuses so far are labeled:
    Door R/L
    Door F/R
    Door F/L

    20a. Where’s the R/R fuse?

    thanks in advance.

    My suggestion would be to remove the window switch.

    Put the window lock switch on (does our truck have these?).
    Then take a piece of wide painters tape and cover the drivers switch.

    You maybe need it for two day.
    I've seen cars come in for service like this and it helps.

    I’ve covered all the switches with blue painters tape. Maybe it’ll be enough, but like I said if there’s a will theres a way.

    No just the master window switch, which is on the driver door.
    Based on my second gens wiring the ground for all four window switches runs through the master switch and thus when it is removed all four windows are inop, its how to window lock switch works. I assume toyota does the same thing with third gens.

    I've heard from tint places that you couldn't roll the windows down for two days.
    Who did the tint? Did they give you a recommendation?

    Friend of mine does tint work, he says with normal weather its two to three days. If its really hot/humid then it can take up to a week, but thats mainly cause we live in Louisiana.

    The R/R switch gets power from the 30A POWER NO.1 fuse.
