Power window issues!!!

YEsturday, after I got and installed my new passenger side switch, I plugged it in, and the window automatically went down (YES!!!) but then, when I tried to get it back up it wouldnt go.. the motor isnt making any sound.

This is very confusing, and also... the is a small wire with a small clip at the end attached to the connection going ito the switch connection. It is unpluged. IU dont know wqhere to plug it in.

Someone please help, its raining like a mother outsie and all i have is a tarp over my car... I need it fixed ASAP

The drivers side switch can disable the passengers side. Are you in the right configuration with the drivers side?

The Black/Blue wire feeds the passenger side from the drivers side switch. So check the passenger side for 12v on the black/blue wire.

Got power on the black/blue? Then see if you have a ground on the GW wire and the RW wire. Got ground, Got power? Then the switch contacts are not making.

my drivers side window stopping working, it is not the switch. Is there a way to take apart the motor and fix it.

You can, but the motor is a wear part that's better replaced with a new one.
