my passenger window doesnt work at all anymore what could it bit does this once in a while then it works again now nothing :57: maybey the axeman has an idea it would be appreciated

Does it fail to work with either window switch? If yes, chances are the window motor is bad.

If it works with one window switch but not with the other then the switch itself needs to be cleaned.

thanks for the response axeman when it doesnt work its with both switches then all of a sudden it works should i take off the door panel to see is all the plugin are good

Yes, pull the door panel and check that you have +12 volts at the motor connector when you activate a switch. If you do and the window doesn't move then the motor is probably bad.

My '98 Sportage does the same thing with the passenger window. It seems to be the drivers door switch panel, i think there is a bad contact between the child switch and the window switch. Pain in the bum. Maybe try taking the multi-switch unit out and spray all the contacts with contact cleaner. Best of Luck!
