Default Passenger window

Out of the blue my passenger side window doesn't go down. (2000 C5)
In your opinion is this something to do with the codes? Could I pull them up on the dash screen and find it to re-set or is it more likely a fuse ?
Thank you for your help.

Probably the switch but can be a few others. I love how you think codes My toaster has a fking computer in it now. GM might have them shortly stay tuned.

I think you posted this in the General section too. If not, read this post, it will get you going.

Not quite sure why you posted this on both forums, but read my response in C5 General. I'll think you'll be surprised at the result.

I posted in both sections because:

1. I wasn't sure where to post.
2. I wanted to make sure it was seen and I was able to get a legit answer.
3. Am I an idiot? Maybe but you'll get over it.
Thanks to those who actually did help me with some ideas to fix my problem.

common problem. beat on the door while holding the "down window" button. When it goes down, just exercise it and use it once a week.

Well now you know that one post is enough. And if you tried what I told you, you'd say thank you to me, too. The attitude won't get you nearly as much help. I gave you a free fix. You're welcome

Please, don't hurt your arm patting yourself on the back. I don't need to get slammed when I'm only asking a question....Thanks Mr. Rules and Regulations.

Your the one who brought up being an idiot, not me. I never mentioned any rules or regulations. I gave you an easy, free fix. Now you apparently don't have the consideration to even post if it fixed your problem or not. If you think what was said in my post is you getting slammed, wait till you've posted a few things. You also asked a question that has been asked and answered hundreds of times here, but didn't search first. I didn't mention that, because I wanted to help you fix your problem without spending unnecessary money. I've learned my lesson, if you don't want my help, you won't get it. No problem.

Check and clear your codes. That happened to me too and that fixed it.
By checking your codes you may find something else that may need to be addressed.
Good luck and let us know how it turns out.
