Simple answer.... Only the relay is clicking.

2 types of window motors. 4 wire has one motor with transmission that allows movement in two directions (up,down)(forward,reverse). 2 wire window motors use the polarity of the magnets to determine which way to go.

If you hear the click you more than likely have a 4 wire window motor. I personally would follow the following steps to diagnose and repair the problem.

step 1.) visually inspect window track and make sure that nothing is blocking the window from operating correctly.

step 2.) if nothing obstructing, insure there is a good power source at the window motor. (11.4~13.0) should be about the same as the battery power. Also check the ground (negative).

If good power and ground and there is no actual motor operation replace it. while you are looking at the motor inspect the window regulator and make for certain that it isn't bent and nothing looks loose. If anything looks not normal replace it. Its better to only have to be in the door once.

What would cause all the windows on my 2002 Envoy to not go down I replaced the drivers side master power switch and they still don't go down The locks work but all the windows just make a click sound?

If the windows on your 2002 Envoy will not go down, and you have replaced the driver's side master power switch, you should make sure that the window hasn't come off track. This would prevent the windows from going down and it would make a clicking sound.

Check to make sure that the windows haven't popped off the track. This would cause the windows in your 2002 Envoy to become stuck and not go down. If you replaced the driver's side master power switch and the locks work but the windows just make a clicking sound, this could help.
