    2017 trd or sb 4x4, rolled of the lot and didn't check the windows until I got home. The driver side window is not doing anything all others are working fine.
    I checked all the fuses inside the cabin and all are good.
    Any ideas what could be an easy fix, or go back to dealer??

    If you want to do a five minute check, pop the control panel off and see if the wires are connected to the switch. Grab from the rear and pull up, it will come right off and there are two connectors that should be attached.

    The wires are connected. I can control all the other windows from driver side, just not driver window.

    Did you get the windows tinted? Some places that the dealer sends the truck to will remove the door panels and disconnect harnesses.

    I thought dealers had a fairly extensive check list before delivering the vehicle to the owner? I thought they all this basic stuff to deem the vehicle operates correctly. Interested to see what the outcome is OP!

    Window operation is checked during the PDI at the dealership. It could have failed right after the OP purchased the vehicle.

    Yes, yes they run a very comprehensive check list before delivery.

    I bought a new 2002 Dodge Dakota R/T and received the check list with all the other paperwork from the dealer. The check list was so complete that the technician even verified that the 4 wheel drive system was tested and confirmed to be in excellent working order...on a 2 wheel drive truck. Pretty sure most dealers just fill in the check boxes and maybe check the oil and tire pressure.

    Toyota takes great care to make sure the PDI is done. Your assumption that most dealerships just fill in the check boxes is not correct.

    I'm not sure Toyota has anything to do with pdi since it's done at a franchise level. Seems like it would depend on the individual dealer.
