95 SC400 passenger window issue
I have done a search..... I have read many threads but all are different that i've seen..... Here is my issue....
Drivers window works fine.... up and down at will........ Passenger window..... one time, a couple of years ago, it went down, but wouldn't go back up...... i played with the switch a little and it worked again... no problems....
Just had the same problem again..... someone else was using my car... they put the passenger window down half way..... then it wouldn't go back up........ they put it all the way down and there it stuck........
I try to use either window switch, but it would not go back up..... when trying to push the window down, you can hear a relay type of click and the dome light dims slightly so i know the motor is actuated..... when i try to push the switch up....... nothing changes.... no relay clicking noise and no window go up........ It really seems like a relay issue somehow..... but i am not sure......
Needless to say, i took off the door panel and used my jump box...... made a wire and touched the wires to the motor....... window went up fine.... no problems......
I hope someone has an idea what relays are in the system or if they think it is the master switch somehow...... Any help would be much appreciated.... I will be out of town for a few days... Thanks again.

* this assumes that the driver's master still functions properly for the driver side window up/down functions. If it doesn't, then you may have pinched/frayed/broken wire problems in the door jambs.
Get a wiring diagram from the many free online sources (search ); it makes it all pretty clear.
