there are 2 clips on the window that are connected to the track. They are glue on and then screwed in. they have a bad habit of breaking. Its not a hard fix but it does take some time.

SOURCE: Window will go down, but not up.

If the window goes down, that says the motor is good. Being a DC motor it will run either direction. The window switch reverses the polarity. You can remove the door panel to get to the window motor connector and determine which wire is live in the down position of the switch. There is only 2 wires at the window motor. After you find out which wire is live for "down", using a 12v battery reverse the polarity by connecting a piece of wire from the battery positive to the window motor terminal that was NOT live in the "down" switch position before. And connect a piece of wire from the battery negative to the window motor terminal that WAS live in the "down" switch position before and the window will go up. Now being positive that the problem in not the motor. You will have to back track to the switches to determine what switch is the cause. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Yes you will have to replace switch on drivers door. That is where the problem is.

SOURCE: PASSENGER WINDOW WON'T GO DOWN FROM DRIVERS SIDE

That sounds like the switch is failing to me. Many times these switches get wet and or dirty which causes them to fail to make a proper contact. I have sprayed many of these switches with electrical contact cleaner and seen them work like new. I would try that first before replacing the switch.

2011 Toyota 4 runner Passenger power window quit

If it's the only window that isn't working it has nothing to do with the fuses. You do not have a separate fuse for each window. If the power window fuse was removed and not placed back into the correct slot, all of your windows would not work. I would start at the window switch and see if you have power to the switch, then move on down the circuit to find the issue. If you end up with the motor getting power when you activate the switch, but nothing happens replace the motor.

Hyundai ix35 2012 window lock stuck. passenger window half down and cant get it to move up or down

Before you replace anything, inspect the connector pins in both the driver's door switch and the passenger door switch. If you don't find any problem with these connector pins, replace the driver's door control switch.

1988 Mazda rx7 window won't raise or lower

Its either the switch or the window regulator. They all 'live' on the passenger side by the way. I have had both replaced on passenger side over the years on my '88 convertible and guess what? Passenger side window decided not to go up today..down yes..up no so I hope its just a switch. She goes into the hospital Monday. Good luck with yours.

Passenger side power window halfway down

You will need to remove your interior trim panel and check your window regulator for damage and for power going to your window motor. If your regulator is ok and you have power going to the motor then you have a bad window motor. If there is no power at the motor then you will need to check the circuit for the problem ie. blown fuses, broken wiring, bad switch. It is very commen for the motors to go bad. Good luck.

2000 GMC Jimmy SLE driver's power window

The same thing happened to my 1999 JMC Jimmy recently. I believe the problem is that your power window motor has most likely gone out or is starting to go out. The motor will need replaced. They are pretty expensive new. I went to a junkyard and got one for around 15 dollars. When mine went bad, I had rolled my window down about three or four inches and it stuck there. I took my door panel off and tapped on the motor while holding up on the window switch and got it to go up after a few minutes. I am replacing my motor today, I'll leave an update here about the outcome when I finish the job. I hope this information helps you.
