Default Passanger side window will not go down

Hi all, been awhile since I posted on the sight. Now that we are 1/2 through winter here in new England I am starting to think about things I need to do to the C5.

When I was putting it in storage in November I noticed the passenger side window would not go down. I could hear the switch or relay clicking but nothing would happen. Any ides as to what it might be?

Thanks.

Or you can give it a few hard raps until it gets stuck next time.

look at the door jam harness. its inside the rubber accordion harness cover. try, pulling that section of harness as you attempt to raise the window.. if you get it to move by doing this you have a short at the connection inside that rubber shroud. Its a common problem
