door window
I get in the car today and try to put the windows down. Drivers side is fine, Passenger side will not work with either switch drivers or passenger. So it leads me to the window motor. Does that sound about right?
No more driving with the top down until thats fixed. (BUMMER)

I suppose so. But it could be switch or wiring too.
Simple test FYI...I've seen a few GM window motors get 'stuck' then once jarred loose they may work fine from thereon. You can try (with the car running) holding the window switch in the down position as you give the pass door a few good closes, it might just free it up if that's the problem.

Had that happen the plug is sensitive and can be pulled on a angle from the rest of the loom in the door.

I just had this problem with my 1993 coupe. If I close the passenger window with the door open, it seems to go up a smidge to far and jams the regulator or motor. If I push down lightly on the window it frees the gear. Now I only close the window when the door is closed. I am sure there is an adjustment but I wll wait until I do weatherstrips
