Passenger side door not going up or down. I powered it directly to battery and it went up and down. Swap switch from back to front that was going but didn't still work there. Please, what should I do next to locate and fix the problem? I'm stocked.

Most of the time when this happens the problem is the main window switch. Here are the wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works, and I have included a guide to help you check for power.

Here is information on the main window switch out as well. Check out the images (below). Let us know how it goes.

Okay. Thank you so much for the swiftness. I'll try studying the diagram more. I'll also redirect my attention more to the driver side master switch. I would be using a test light to conduct the test. Please, is there any further guide or perhaps a video that may guide me more using a test light?
