Can you advise on the proper way to get to the motor on the passenger door window to replace it or the switch as it no longer works? Window won't go down and it is dead. It appears either motor is dead since it will not work from either the master switch on drivers door or the passenger switch. I have no idea how to get to the motor without damaging things. Can you advise?

I'd check the wiring going into the passenger door first, hinge side of door. The white wire with pink tracer, should be hot, is it? I usually break something, removing door panels, not bad enough that panel won't go back in place. If I don't break a keeper or something, it's just luck, speaking for myself.
