So about 3 1/2 years ago my passenger window went out. at first it just quite and for about 6 months it would work sometimes and sometimes it wouldnt, it finaly just quite working at all. well I finaly got tired of it today. so I went to the junk yard and picked up a new motor for $45 alittle high but it was the only one within driving distance. But it didnt fix it. I tested the new one and it works. when I try to roll the window up there is a clicking noise that comes from the passenger side switch. but the passenger side switch works on the back door so its not the switch. it also makes the noise when I put the back switch on the front. Has anyone else ever had this happen or know what is happening? does anyone know how to fix it or any trouble shooting options?
Thanks

replace the driers side switch for that door if poss. sum times if that one fails it will bypass the switch in the line drivers is first thats why you have a lock on that door only it controls all doors

I figured out what was wrong with my window. The problem was in the wires. The previous owner had replaced the door due to an accedent and they had cut the wires between the car and the door and one of them had worked loose.

Just for the record mine is fixed.

Try putting the back passenger window switch on the front passenger door and see if it works then. If so then it's your front passenger switch.
