Default Power windows broken

I have a 2009 accent that all of a sudden none of the power windows will roll up or down. All of the fuses are good. Help please and thank you in advance

A check of power available to the driver's door master sw assy would be a good place to start. There is also the possibility of a broken wire that brings power to the master sw..
The most likely place would be the driver's door hinge area where the wires flex every time the door is opened and closed..
This is not a good place for a DIY person to get involved because patience, tools and some experience would be required.

Some fuses will not have power unless the ignition is on. You might want to run the checks again with the key in the on position.

You are correct thank you. Fuses are good. I ran my test light at the top of the connector in the door hinge and I have no power at the red or pink wires. Are there any relays that need to be check or do I need to trace the red wire for a break in it or?

IF,,,,,,,,You are sure that red wire is the supply, you can bring power to that wire/terminal with a length of wire and see if any direction works. If so, you know what you need to do. If not, we need to look further for possible broken wires.

The switches reverse polarity to the window motors and what is power in one direction (UP), becomes the ground in the other (DOWN) direction. .

If you are not familiar with doing electrical work, I would suggest you have a capable shop check out the system.

I am somewhat familiar with electrical. I haven't fried anything. I have installed numerous stereos and power amps. So I will give a shot. Looking at the schematic it appears the red wire is supposed to be hot. I will let you know how it goes thanks for the advice
