I am having trouble with my passenger side windows front a back neither window will go up or down from either driver side button or from passenger side buttons. All other windows work fine, I have swapped the rear drivers side button with passenger side in rear and still don't work. THey both seem to be getting power when tested them could both motors have went at same time seems wierd but hey i have seen some weird **** happen before lol. I have also grounded the brown wire and hook blue wire to battery and still get nothing to passenger side front. Would not be so bad if it would have been one window but both at same time on same side weird. Any one got any ideas?

test for power at the plug end where it would plug into the window motor, work the switch, see if its sending power.

if your running power right to the motors from the battery, make sure it got a good ground as well, and they dont move at all, it looks like the motors both crapped out.
as long as theres power at the plugs when working the switch, the motors should be the problem.

Just like scotty said, the motors probably took a dump on you. It's common. I have a buddy and he has a 4 door gtp. 3 of the windows don't work lol. It's absolutely ridiculous. Good luck, it's probably going to be the motors though, shouldn't be too pricey. Glad I have a coupe, that's half the amount of windows that can stop working! :th_king-normal: but good luck man

It's more than likely the window motor. I had two window motors crap out at inopportune times, both within a month of each other. Just replace the window motor and regulator, a new one runs you about $90 at AutoZone and comes with a lifetime warranty. It's not too difficult to replace. Ideally you want a T-25 torx bit, but I found a 3/16 allen wrench works, too. That, and a 10mm socket and you'll have it replaced in an hour or less.
Just be glad yours didn't get stuck in the "down" position with a storm front bearing down on you. Talk about a fix done under pressure (I finished about 10 minutes before the heavens opened up).
