That happen to me...
the window Switch has to come off... Just use a flat to pop it out.. Then there should be 4 screws on the back of the console.. Unscrew those screws, and take the window console off...AFter there should be two spring on both side. The one on the left is to roll up or down the Drivers window, and the spring on the left is for the Passenger Window. Play with it... If it Still doesn't work than it could be your harness. They cost like around 125.00 use, and 200.00 for new.
heheheh.. I'm using the spring to roll up my window too...

Mine won't roll down..
I noticed I'm not getting any power to the fuse box to power them... I got a printout from the roadshop at my work and noticed that the windows are reverse polarity... but giving them power should not hurt... go get a tester light and see if your getting power there... then use a pocket knife to pop out the drivers window switch... then take the tester light to that... finding a constant power, then checking both sides of the circuit board inside the switch w/ the light... if one does not light up like the other... i.e. pull switch up and lights... then bridge the connection to at least get the window up untill you get a new switch.
Take it easy,

search worked for me https://www.rx7club.com/search.php?s...der=descending
i still think its the switch though.
go to iluvmyrx7 for the factory service manual to learn how to remove the window if you want.

gotcha. check the fuse perhaps. if it is the motor, i would think that it would still get power and the motor would make some kind of noise like it was trying to move the window or you might hear power being switched on/off.
