Thumbs down Window stuck up....

Title says it all. Passenger side window broken. Drivers button dosn't do anything neither does the passenger side. Im guessing the motors shot or could it be a breaker. Any insight would be appreciated.

Could be. Take the door panel off and have a look. The breaker is self resetting. Could be bad switch contacts but I doubt both would go out at the same time. Maybe a connector came loose on the window motor? At any rate, your going to have to open her up and have a look.

I installed new speakers the other day and I disconnected the switch. maybe it has to be connected to complete a circuit or something. Taking off that door panel sucks. Thanks

Well yeah anyone with a brain knows that, but it doesn't work from the switch on the driver side while the others do.
