The Driver side and rear window work fine.

The passenger windows likes to randomly work. It is not b/c of the window lock button either.

When the window does work, only the switch on the drivers side can roll it down, otherwise the switch on the passenger side is completely dead. I decided to disconnect the switch on the passenger side to see if it changed anything. It would still randomly stop working.

So, could it be the main Power Window Switch on the driver side? Can a faulty driver side switch affect the passenger side regulators function?

It's not the passenger windows motor since it rolls the window up fine and doesn't stutter, or appears to be weak.

I rather not bring this to the dealer, since I think it might be a simple fix. I did replace the fuses and that did not fix the problem either.

Thanks

i just replaced a passenger switch in a car a few weeks ago that was having similar issues. if the master switch is unplugged, usually there is no operation at the passenger door. not the same for the opposite tho, i would test the switches with a meter and if they are good, go looking at the wiring next. if its intermittent, its going to be a loose wire, or a connection that is broken inside insulation.
