passenger window trouble

I can control from the driver side but no action from the passenger side. Switch is good, I checked it out. Any obvious trouble shooting suggestions?

Wires between passenger side switch and the window motor?

Just my WAG (Wild-Ass Guess)

Is your switched connected to the wires properly? Both windows on my car were wired up wrong when I bought it so neither would roll down and upon trying, it would blow the fuse...

Did you check the fuse/box? The 2 windows are separately fused.

look at the wiring diagrams on this board. They should help you find the problem. I just built a working wiring harness for my car for the power windows from the diagrams. There are two early car and later (post 1978 or so)

sorry, kinda stealing thread but i also have a question about my passenger side power window.my pass side window has trouble rolling down (power windows) from both switches used to control that window. it is even worse when the window is wet, however if i open the pass side door and try to roll it down, it works perfectly. I havent pulled off the door card to inspect, any suggestions on what could be causing the problem?

This sounds like your door is closing to tight and moving the window frame outwards causing it to bind when closed.
