The right side is the passengers side does the window go down using the drivers side switch? If it doesn't work from either side switch its probably the power wire going to the down side of the switch. Check for power at the Wire on switch both sides and make sure you have power going to both up and down side, Sometimes the wires get broken in between the door and door jam, By getting pinched, Hope that helps ya out Thanks

Why does the Power Window Front Right goes down but not up! I have included further troubleshooting in the details below.

Power window motors are operated via two circuits; power and ground. The unique part about these circuits is that the direction that the motor rotates (moving the window up or down) is controlled by the direction of current flow using window switches. Window switches are all grounded in their default position but when they are moved to the UP or DOWN position they are connected to power instead. Here's how this works: when the master switch's right-front window switch is held to the UP position, the UP circuit is removed from ground and power flows through it, then passes through the UP circuit of the right-front window sub-switch, then to the window motor, then makes it's way through the DOWN circuit through the right-front sub-switch, then the master window switch, then to the common ground. When the master switch's right-front switch is held to the DOWN position, the DOWN circuit is removed from ground and power flows through it to the sub-switch, then to the window motor, then makes it's way to the common ground through the sub-switch and master switch's UP circuit. For your specific case I'd suspect that the master window switch's right-front switch connection to the DOWN circuit is not grounding by default like it should and therefore not providing a ground path for the motor when the UP circuit is energized.

POWER WINDOWS NOT WORKING & POWER WINDOW/REGULATOR ISSUES


It can be issue with motor itself. If it's not going up, then how its working down. But still it feels like weak window motor or is issue with power window switch. Get the voltage tested at switch and motor. Also try another working window motor at not working window side.

The drivers side window stoped working on my 2004 silverado the passenger side works fine

Try the fuse. The switch may be faulty so check by removing the inner door panel and connecting a 12v battery via two wires to the motor that winds the window up and down. If it goes up and down it's probably the switch which may just need a clean on the terminals.

Passenger Window Stuck all the way Down

Try switching the power window switch from the passenger side to the drivers side. Before you do that try with the switch on the up position, wiggle it from side to side. The contacts may be worn and by wiggling it may make contact. Other then that try to park it in side or garbage bag taped to keep rain out till you get it to the shop.
Hint, take it to a Auto window repair shop to replace the switch if it's bad or if the motor is bad. They have more experience to removing the door panels and removing the power window regulator (motor) if that needs to be replaced.
Good luck and hope this helps.
