The front passenger window stopped working in the up position. Lucky for us it was up. The power locks work fine, as do all the other power windows. We hear a click sound from the passenger control switch when we try lowering from the drivers side. Any advice would be great.

Hello,

This could be due to a faulty window regulator. If you hear the click on the switch, it means the switch is producing power, but the motor is not operating.

Take a look at this video, it shows how to test the window switch and motor:

In order to access the window motor, you will have to remove the inner door trim.
Which is mounted by few screws and several plastic fasteners.

Here is a helpful guide:

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
