Hi guys,
driving home today when suddenly I got a load buzzing noise coming from the fuse box under the dash. Found the cause to be the power window circuit breaker and it was VERY HOT. I pulled it out and got a replacement from Sprint, didn't solve the problem. Also worth mentioning that while this buzzing is happening the power windows don't work. Any clues?

What your referring I don't think is a circuit breaker. Is it a fuse or relay? If you have a buzzing sound then I would think you have a high resistance joint or faulty relay.

I had no idea it was a circuit breaker until I showed it to the bloke at Sprint,
who then checked with the senior bloke. I bought a replacement which was clearly marked as a circuit breaker, it fit where the other one had come from and the power windows worked fine until the buzzing started again.

Yeah, intermittent faults are always a PITA to find.
