My passenger window was working fine. I rolled it up left my car and when i came back later that night it wasn't working. Not like it was having a hard time it just didnt work at all no sound nothing. I tried to roll it down from both passenger and drivers side and got the same results. I figured the motor burnt out so i picked one up and plugged it in to see if it was working before i went through the hassle of installing it, and the new one wouldn't run either. The power locks work fine and my speakers work fine. Drivers side works fine. I had no problems before it was out of the blue it died. I have no clue whats wrong. Anyone had this problem before? Is it wiring or something? :puzzled:

My guess would be either wiring or the fuse for the power window blew. It could be something else but it's worth throwing out there.

I know this sounds stupid, but I had the same problem and it was because my window lock was on. Check it!

It only applies to passenger side.

[EDIT] But the switch is on the driver's side. It's a button.

check for power and ground at the motor, if you dont get it there then you have a wiring issue. If you do get both at the motor then you got a defect motor.

Ill back you up on this one man, haha at least I dont feel so stupid anymore.

Honestly, check the lock button, I feel like a total tool telling you this could be your solution, but just do it.

Yea sometimes it's the things that are right under our noses and we just simply overlook it cause we think that it can't possibly be so simple. But at least you got it fixed.
