Should have no effect on your windows. Have someone check the fuse for your power windows. Hopefully, that's the problem. There are also power window relays tucked up under the dash by the steering wheel. Those could be bad also. Here is a short video on another possibility that you may want to check: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vLn-dVmTDQ
