2003 Legacy passenger window not going up or down- not the switch and not the motor

Featured Replies

2003 Legacy  - wagon - 150K miles.

Front Passenger electric window originally worked but would go up too far. Eventually stopped working altogether - from both the driver's master and passenger side switch.

Replaced the window's regulator and motor and still not working.

DOES work with 12v direct to motor.

Switch is GOOD - works w/the rear window and the rear switch does not work on the passenger either. 

Assuming it must be the harness, but is there a common failure point? Maybe the harness under the boot / cover that runs between the door and body? Haven't checked that yet. 

 

Thanks for any feedback!

 

 

 

Id still guess it’s the switch. Test it. 

Wet due to window being off track?

In the flex section of the wiring frame to door.

Check voltage at the motor under load!

Oh heck yeah. If it’s wiring it’s almost always inside that flex boot conduit.
