Had the same problem... mostly when raining ...under hood are three wiring connectors, large, on driver side, behind headlight. dried with air, wrapped with walmart plastic bag and problem went away. Evidently, moisture was getting into the connectors causing a demon to be released in my truck...windows opening on own...same with wipers, but would not work when I wanted them to work. Really demonic, but is now cured.
