Default Passenger window.

00 Red Vette Hardtop. The passenger side window has been intermittent since the car was about one year old. It would work, then it wouldn't work. Naturally the two times I took it to the dealer it started working so they could never verify the problem. Now it's been in the up position for three weeks, and will not go down. I've tried slamming the door while holding the button. I just installed a Corsa Pace Car exhaust and I want to hear it, so it's irritating that the window won't go down. Anyone have any suggestions, other than just breaking the window out?

I had the same problem a couple years ago and the dealer replaced the window motor.

Remove door panel and bang on the window motor w/ vice grips, wrench, etc. w/ key on while holding window switch down. Worked for me 4-5 times. Been working fine for last 4-5 months.
