When it quits working neither the drivers side passenger window switch nor the passenger side window switch operates the window. The drivers window and switch are never affected. Only the passenger window.

Randomly, the window starts working. When the window begins working both passenger switches work as normal. I read a post here that indicated that power comes through the passenger side switch. That might explain why both passenger switches fail or work at the same time.

Is my problem likely a relay, the passenger window switch, the motor, or something Bentley calls the power window control module (wherever that's located)? Where do I begin? Thanks for any help.
You are close with the power routing.

Let's have a look at the P/W fuse first.

Clean the fuse contacts, and replace the fuse.

Then report back as needed.

Best,

Gerry
