Default Passenger window

before I start tearing things apart I thought I would see if someone has some suggestions that might save some time. Have never had any issues with either window. All at once my passenger window will not operate from up position. I do hear a "clicking" noise coming from inside the door. Neither switch does anything. Does this sound like a regulator or perhaps just a bad connection? If regulator what is best replacement and vendor?
Thanks, Todd

Window regulators aren't that expensive. These are some of the easier cars to replace one on.

There may be codes if the door control module is failing.

If you are not a DIY person (like me) or want to try a quick fix without removing the door panel, here is a method I used on my passenger's window that was not moving about 3 months ago. So far, no further problems.
