The power window doesnt work on rear passenger side. Is is possible to tell if it is the motor or the regulator w/motor to be replaced ...?

Also, without changing any of the above, is it possible to lock the window up in high position ?

A nylon pulley in the window regulator, gets weak with age and usually cracks, causing your problem. It's fairly common.

You can lock the window up by putting a piece of wood inside to prop it up.
