Default Uh ohhh encountered my first problem

My passenger side window will go up and down, like normal, when its operated from the driver side switch, but it only goes down when controlled by the passenger, and can't be brought back up. I'm sure its not the motor, is it the switch thats faulty? How would I go about fixing this!

i had a problem similar to this not that long ago and t came to be the drivers switch. When the switch goes bad it gives a ground through the window lock so u cant roll the window down from the driver side. If u listen with the car off and no noise around, listen to see if the window clicks when u use the drivers switch to roll the window up. witht he window up of course it wont roll up but u can hear a clicking noise. This is what mine did. I replaced the switch andit worked perfectly. Now u say it goes from the passenger, i didnt have that problem. Bypass the window lock by getting some wiring diagrams and see if it moves. Its not the motor, if it was if wouldnt work from the passenger window either.

Your pass. side switch is bad, just replace it--- look for aliga-- he's got a few part outs on sc's goin on...... Should be an easy cheap fix.
