Hey Guys,
A few weeks ago i was driving my old subaru and there was a high level of water on the road. A day or 2 later all my power windows and sunroof cannot be operated. Any know what would be wrong, it's not the fuse as I have checked them already.

Cheers

How high was the water exactly? What year subby? Are you 100% you checked all fuses? Checked power at the switch/motor?

water was near top of tyre i'd say. Mine is a 93 Impreza N/A.
I've check the fuse box inside car and under bonnent. All 4 window switch does not work plus the sunroof also.....

Check all your relays, pull up a wiring diagram and find what they all share in common. May be a common earth(unlikey because a bad earth will still allow motors to operate normally, just at a slower rate), or more likely a blown fuse, damaged relay or connector.

If you can find a current flow diagram, i can point you in the right direction.
