Default Here We Go.....

Funny how things "just happen". Drove my car all day yesterday, the weather here is simply awesome. Get in it this morning and my window doesn't go down...
So, I was wondering if I could re-program a code or something instead of taking it to the dealer and paying $100.00 for a "master mechanic" to take 30 seconds to get it cleared? If there is I would appreciate any advice or step-by-step directions to do so.
Happy Memorial Day and God Bless Our Troops.

Just so I understand... the window won't go down and it's showing codes? Just clear them yourself, and pound on the door with your fist. Also, you can pull out your window control panel and make sure it is plugged in all the way.

Pull back the accordian tubing from the door and see if there is a wire in there that is bare. Happens a lot. Read Bill Curlees electrical sticky on this in the tech section.

I don't think that the window will throw any codes.

Sorry I forgot to explain myself ....there are no codes showing on the screen. The power window simply will not go down on the passengers side when I push the button. My drivers side works fine, so I don't know what happened from Sunday to Monday while I was sleeping.
