I have an 04 4door had the same problem. pop out the window dor lock panel and the power clip to the window door locks. there is a single red wire i found when i pushed it it it worked fine. its like there was a bad pin connector. i took it apart recrimped the wire and it works like new. when you take this apart take your time the plastic brakes easy. il get pics if guys need

I have had the same problem for months now. When I was changing out my door speakers I figured I'd take a look to check what the problem is. Couldnt find the problem but I did break the plastic clips that lock down the control panel so everytime you press window up, the whole panel slides forward. SO BE CAREFUL! Mine looks so ghetto now

Yes at night push it if the light comes on its working if the light does not its not working. And the red wire I talked about is the power window lock button wire. If you pop the hold thing out and play with the red wire and hav some one use the pssangers window you will see what im im saying

I have an 03 Durango, I've got a similar problem, all passenger windows work only with the drivers door master controls all three doors won't work by the switch on the door. It's like the windows lock is engaged but it's not, I got on ebay and found a replacement switch bank, swapped it out and it still didn't work, I've taken both control panels apart and cleaned all switches and contacts and still nothing. I guess it's possible for both units to be bad, but I was wandering if maybe there was some sort of relay or other component in line somewhere that might be causing it. Any Ideas?

Well, I didn't realize I didn't read down to the last post, just read the post above, will try that, hopefully that's all it is, please excuse my ignorance!!

well not too sure about the two door but with the four door the window lock always screws up on mine i took it all apart and cleaned out the window lock switch and bent the prongs so they make the right connection and it works if the wife would leave it alone she always uses it cause of the kids i told her to just keep the car brush in the front seat and use that to get them to stop playing with them.

Default 2002 2 door

I have a similar problem. Passenger window is intermittent.
I do know that it is related to the main harness at the drivers control panel..
I noticed that when I pushed the whole panel forward (on the drivers side, there is a little play) the passenger switch would work again. Taking the connectors out and in would also fix the problem (not exactly sure if it's the main one or the secondary). I had to remove the door panel and take out a blown speaker (actually intermittent, another story) and on replacing the whole thing the passenger side now is more stable (so far). Seems to have to do w/ the bend in the harness and the plug. I suspect it somehow breaks the contact to the plug. Not a short or break AFAIKT...
