Help, passenger window not working

Alright guys
So I just drove last night from nyc to Rochester and my windows have been working perfectly. however, today i went to drive and my passenger window would not go down, in addition, my door locks wouldnt work. Makes no sense because the locks would still work with the key fob. In addition, when i try to open the windows using the key in the drivers door, only the drivers would open. I checked both the plugs on the passenger door and the fuses for electrical mechanical under the steering wheel, everything checks out okay. just my passenger window and door locks don't work, i also tried the mirrors, which work fine, so i'm pretty sure there is not an issue with the molex connector in the door. if anyone could help, i will gladly appreciate it. thanks

Check all the fuses. This happened to me a few months ago with something similar. I was doing the LED Switch mod and from one thing to the next the interior lights and switches weren't working.

It sounds like you might have a bad switch. I don't remember if the door lock switch and window controls are on the same board or not.

So I finally got around to checking all the fuses under the steering wheel, pulled each and every one, still no luck. Is there one in the engine bay or in another location that i should check? this whole situation is just kinda messing with me, it just randomly gave out, who knows

My driver side window starting acting up, didn't know if it was the motor or the switch assembly. I was in no mood to put $180 for the **** assembly on the driver side, so I opened up the panel, raised the mirror and disconnected the connector. No use of driver side window, problem solved.!!!

Same problem happened to me this summer with the passenger window down. Did not want to know anything, I tryed rolling it up by locking the door with the key and only the driver was rolling up, by using the driver side switch and nothing. So I got pissed off and basically I punched the door from the inside while pushing upwards on the switch and BOOM the window worked again. Knock on wood its been working ever since.
