Seat Formentor Power Windows Dead

My Seat Formentor, build year 2023 with a gasoline engine, has its power windows completely dead. None of the windows operate. Could a defective power window switch be the cause?

Sounds like a classic window regulator issue. Have you checked the error memory? Often a defective power window switch will throw a code. Is there any noise coming from the door when you try to operate the window?

Given the error code and complete failure, I'd guess the switch. While it could be the window regulator, those usually fail more gradually. At that mileage, the car window mechanism might show wear, but a sudden complete stop suggests electrical. A workshop can confirm it quickly.

The error memory shows a fault. Do you think it's more likely the switch than something with the window mechanism or window track? I'm trying to avoid tearing the whole door apart if I can.

Took it to the shop, and it was a faulty window regulator. The switch was the culprit. The repair cost 200€, so your hunch was right. Thanks for the help.
