Passenger side Windows question - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Well my Passenger side windows have never been working since i have the car.

now im lazy and do not wanna take the panel off to check it.

so hmm could it be something simple like a fuse that doesn't make those work?
my driver sides work.
but not passenger sides.

Or is it the motors?

It's not difficult to remove the door trim panel. On the second try you should be able to do it in about a minute.

Unplug the motor connector and test for voltage supply using a voltmeter. Harbor Freight has them on sale often for a few bucks. Then try connecting battery voltage to the motor to see if it operates.

This way you'll know if the problem is upstream or downstream of that connector (for example, motor or switches/fuse).

i don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but if both windows on the passenger side aren't working then you'll probably find some broken wires in the drivers door. All the windows run through the master switch on the drivers door and after years of opening and closing the door the wire insulation becomes brittle and starts cracking. This happened on both my 94 and 96 LE's. It's pretty easy to fix but you'll have to remove the driver door panel, the kick panel on the floor of the driver side, unplug the harnesses from the kick panel and pull them through the rubber boot that spans from the car to the door. Once you do that you'll probably see a half dozen or so wires with cracked insulation and a few that are completely split.

Good luck!

There is a button right next to the door lock switch on the driver's control panel that disables the passenger windows. Check to see if that button is pressed in.

the kick panel is on the drivers side floor to the left of the pedals.
