Passenger window problem
Only hear a click when trying to lower passenger window. No hint of a problem leading up to this. Same result from either window control. Window motor makes no sound at all. All you hear is a single click when you push the button. Any ideas?

Get a hammer, pull the door panel, and tap the black bolt on the left side-center"ish" and it'll go down. For a permanent fix, replace the motor/regulator assembly.

Ditto! Just remember to use the window after you unstick the motor and it won't happen again! They will continue to stick with a lack of use.

To the OP-
You'll also need a flat-head screwdriver to pop the door handle cover and the cover behind the grab handle that hides the two 10 mm bolts securing the panel to the door. You'll need a ratchet, 10 mm socket, and an extension to remove these two bolts. Be prepared to have to pick up a few of the plastic male pins because they break/bend easily, and once broken/bent, you won't be able to use them anymore.

Just performed this on my '02 'vert. 5 taps and the window started working! Thanks for the advise. Broke one of the plastic door pins but was going to order some anyway.
