Default Passenger window keeps getting stuck

Just recently the passenger window got stuck down. Played with some fuses, removed a couple and re-installed. Started working. Problem solved? No. Did it again. Played with the fuses again and got it working. Worked for a few trips then stopped agian. What gives?

I'm no expert, but sounds like the door control module may be failing. There is a real good DIY thread here on how to check it out and fix. I know that I've found the relays at several electronics suppliers. If you can solder you can fix it yourself I'll bet. Remove the door panel and then the module, open up module and replace relays.

I think the DIY is in the sticky above.

Pull back the rubber acordian boot at the door hindge and check the connector there. Bill Curley has a post with pictures showing what to look for. Take apart the connector and look at the pins and the sockets for any discoloration or signs of wear. Also look for any exposed wire coming out of the connector that might short out to another wire. If you find them, wrap it with some electrical tape. Good luck.
