    Did you check ALL the fuses? On some models there is one fuse for each
    window. Did you measure the passenger side to see if there is power
    going to the motor? You could have a failed motor.

    ive checked dthe fuses ..all working...checked the power of the motor by giving it power from alternate source(window goes down)... could it be that its not grounded? ive checked the power on the passenger side and theres no power going. anyone know where the main power wires connect to or any leadin info.. thanks..

    I don't have the wiring diagram for your car, but it is probably similar
    to my '94 Civic. Battery voltage for the passenger window comes from the
    fuse box, splits up and goes to both the switch in the driver's door and
    the switch in the passenger door. If you pull out the switch in the
    passenger door there should be battery voltage at one of the 5 wires
    going to the switch as long as the ignition is on. Ceck if this is the
    casee.

    Ground comes from a wire in the car, goes into the driver's door, goes
    through the power windows main shut-off switch (the one that disables
    the passenger side window switch) then to the driver's side switch for
    the passenger window. This switch has two outputs. Normally both are
    connected to ground through the switch (when operating the button, one
    or the other is connected to battery voltage). Both these wires
    (normally grounded) go out from the driver's door, through the car and
    into the passenger door and to the passenger switch. This long path is
    the only ground path for the passenger window motor. Lots of places
    where a wire break could happen.

    I would suspect the on-off switch in the driver's door. If the passenger
    side refuses to go both up and down, I would say it is almost certainly
    that switch or the wires in its immediate surroundings. If the fault is
    only on "up" or only on "down" I would suspect the connections in the
    door jambs (just because they have seen a lot of movement over the past
    13 years).

  6. The wire harnesses connect to the doors with a plug, which is latched inro
    a socket at the front of the door. Check that the plugs in both doors are
    properly seated and that the wires/pins are not damaged. IME body shops
    often break the latches because they don't know how to unlatch them and
    then the plug gets pulled out slightly every time you open the door.
