My passenger side window stopped working. All other windows work fine. When I push the window button I can hear a click but the window does not move. I think that the window motor may be stuck or has gone bad. Any ideas?? Also, how do you remove the door panel to inspect the motor?

sorry for the late reply.

To remove trim panel. Remove door handle bezel. Remove window handle if equipped . Remove the power accessory switch panel. Remove the upper extension of the trim panel. Remove the manual lock lever from the trim panel using a flat bladed tool. Remove the trim panel screws. Remove the courtesy lamp if equipped. Remove the trim panel from the door. Carefully slide the trim panel up in order to release the retainers from the door.

I realize this is an old post. In the future hope you don't have any vehicle issues, but, if you do, keep the site in mind. They are always working to improve the site and it's free to ask a question.

Have a good day.
