Unhappy Power window woes

<HR style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #d1d1e1; COLOR: #d1d1e1" SIZE=1 itxtvisited="1"> <!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->
The other day my passenger side power window started acting up, at first it did not want to roll down but would go up. Then when I had the drivers side door open it would go up or down. The next day it would only go up even if I had the door open but if I opened and closed the drivers door a couple times it would go down. Now no matter what I do the window will not go down just up, I first figured it was the wiring in the driver side door, so I pulled the boot out from the door and checked all the wires but could not find any broken or rubbed. Then I thought maybe it was a fuse but was unable to find any fuses blown and still I cannot roll down my passenger side window. If somebody has some input on this it would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having the exact same issues...I've replaced the driver side switch, motor, and I'm fairly sure it is the passenger side switch I guess. I don't know what else it could be.

You'll have to put a test meter on the leads going into the motor and then activate the switches. The polarity will change whether going up or down so you will need a meter that shows polarity. If you are getting the voltage at the motor leads then the switches are probably fine, test using both switches (drivers door/ pass. door). Usually it is one or the other that is bad, not the motor.
