Default Passenger Side Window Won't Go Down. Please Help!

On my '02 Z06, for some reason the passenger side window will not go down. The driver side works fine, but when I push the button on either door for the pass window, you can hear it make a little noise but does not go down. I checked the 2 fuses for the pass side door, (I believe 30 & 31) and they both looked fine. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I should look for? Thanks in advance for your help.

A search will show you hundreds of posts about this. If you'll turn on the ignition, hold down the window down switch (on either door) and close the passenger door firmly a few times, it will usually free up. Then occasionally run it up and down to keep the contacts from sticking again. If that doesn't work, either search or post back.

real common on most chevrolets. Hit the inside of the door real hard with the side of your fist while pressing down the button.. The motor is sticking.. I had to take the door panel off of my truck and hit the power door motor with a rubber mallet,, no problems sice then,, that was 2 years ago. The dealership will tell you the power window motor assembly needs to be replaced for $600.00.. Not so
