Default Passanger side window won't roll up...



Went to get my car cleaned today, and when putting the top down the window rolled down. When I returned to work, I put the top up and then the windows and noticed the passenger side window didn't roll up. Tried the button on the passenger side door to see if I could roll up the window with that one, but it still stayed down. I don't even hear the motor engaging or anything happening when I push the button. Is this unusual? The car is a MY01 w/ 16K miles and still under warranty. Should I just take it in?

Check fuses. If all OK. Yes, take it to dealer. It should be covered under warranty.

What do I check for? I did try both switches, the one on the drivers side, and the one on the passenger side door, neither worked. Where's the fuse box on the S2k, I don't have my owners manual with me.

I thought that only controlled the passenger from rolling the passenger window up down, or does it affect both switches?

Well that may be what happened since I was cleaning the car I might have turned it off.

Not me. I think the design of the "master switch" as well as the "lock only" passenger side door are about the most asinine things I have seen on an otherwise well-designed car.

The master switch should only disable the passenger side power controls.
There should be a way to unlock the passenger door from the driver's seat.

The odd mechanical safety to prevent the doors from locking when they are open is wierd too.

I guess I am just too used to the way Toyota does it (the right way).
