Default Passenger Window Problem

The wife called me this morning, said she was going to drive her Vette to work. She said she tried to roll down the passenger window to let the top down but it wouldn´t work from the drivers side or the passenger side, drivers window works fine. It all worked when it was put int the garage a couple months ago. I would think its not a fuse cause the drivers window works. Anyone ever had this happen? I am out of town till Thursday, just trying to gets some input as where to start looking. It´s a 2003 Anniversity Vert. Thanks!

Don't assume there are just fuses for the drivers side that also work for the passenger side. Look at your Owners Manual and see if fuses are the issue.

I think it is probably the relay in the RDCM.

Take a rubber mallet and bang the middle of the door with it. An elbow will also do the trick. I am serious. Check the rubber accordion wire seal in the door and see if the wires are pinched. This is a very common problem.

Thanks for the info, I will check that when I get back home. She also told me last night that the power door locks don´t work on passenger side also.
