Default Window & Door Lock Not Working

2003 Convertible, passenger side, door lock and window not working. When putting the top down, drivers side window does go down and can be raised as well as the door lock is working. Passenger side window now stuck in the down position.

Other than a fuse, any suggestions ? Anyone aware if this is a separate circuit for the passenger side window and door lock, both are also not working when using the controls on the drivers door.

......thanks

There is a separate circuit for passenger door. It is called "Power Suppy Door Left",usually with a 25 amp fuse in the pasenger side kick pad fuse panel in position 34 (bottom right).

Pull back the black rubber accordian boot at the door hinge. There is a wiring connector there that has been known to cause this kind of problem. Look for exposed wire going into the connector, bent or burnt pins or sockets, then unplug and replug the connector. If that doesn't resolve the problem, swap the passenger side door control module (little black box just behind the door panel) with the driver's side and see if the problem travels to the other door or not. Let us know what happens.

As previously mentioned, the fuse for the driver side door should be checked, also inspect the connectors inside the rubber accordion between door and car.
