Default Passenger window control failure

Hi,

At the 150K mile mark electromechanical components are starting to fail (Nav DVD reader, CD changer, 2 starters (they seem good for only ~70K miles), brake switch, etc.) which is probably reasonable to expect, even in a non-humid climate. Recently, the controls for the passenger side window stopped working. Some details:

- Driver's side window control works to control driver's side window
- Passenger side window switch LEDs are not lit on either door
- Passenger side window rolls up and down when top is changed to up or down position

Given that the motor is proven good by the fact that the window goes up and down with no problems when the top's position is changed, I'm inclined to think that there is probably an issue with the "COMPUTER MPX DOOR" component in the passenger door.

I'd greatly appreciate any advice. Thank you in advance.

Are you saying that BOTH the driver's side and passenger's side switches cannot operate the passenger's window?

And so obvious I hate to mention it, you are sure that the lockout control is in the OFF position? That actually fits your symptoms perfectly.

Hi,

Embarrassingly, it was the child lock switch. I'd forgotten it exists. Wiring in a carpc and a LuxLink was no problem but this one sure fooled me. Glad this will now be archived for anyone else who runs into the same problem.

Thank you all so much for the help, I really appreciate it.
