The reason I was saying the driver side window switch, is because all the windows controls, are controlled by that switch. Buy the main switch from the wreckers, and save yourself the hassle. All the window controls, are controlled by that switch.

I found the problem! Wires were broken between the switch and the harness connector. They are located inside the boot between the drivers door and the interior of the jeep. I suppose with the driver door opening and closing so much the wires became weak and snapped. You can see that 4 wires had snapped and other wires were about to break.
This is the boot


Here is what was broken

As soon as I fixed these wires everything worked again. I also had an issue with my drivers door where it had to be shut in order to unlock the doors. I was able to fix that problem as well.

So for everyone who has problems with their power windows or locks check here before anything else! I spent hours testing switches and finding what wires had power etc. and all along this was the problem.
