Try this, while pressing the pax
switch from the drivers side,  swing the door in and out slowly.  If the
problem is a weak or broken wire, you may hit a spot where it makes a
connection. BTDT.

Citizens,

I have experienced a very inconvenient power window failure that has left
both window inoperable and the passenger side completely open. Obviously, I
can't secure the van like this. I'm not near tools or Bentley.

This morning when I left the house, the driver's side would not operate. It
has been a dicky switch for sometime. Hard to get it to operate consistently
without a lot of wiggling. So, I opened the pax side halfway for the morning
drive. This afternoon with temp at 70F, I rolled the pax side down all the
way. Now, it won't roll up.

So, is there a single fuse for the lift motors? What position? it does
indicate on the cover. Checked all fuses, replaced number 10 (from pax side)
and I think number 14. When I rock the pax side switch I can hear a faint
chuk, chuk from the motor but no action.

Any recommended next troubleshooting steps?

Thanks in advance, gang.
