2004 Gmc Cc Pass Power Window Inoperative

I have a 2004 GMC Sierra 3500 4X4 crew cab. The passenger front power window does not work. I changed the power window motor thinking that was the problem. When it still didn't work, I pulled the passenger and drivers door modules, figured out how to take them apart and cleaned the contacts using a pencil eraser and a cotton swab soaked with isopropyl alcohol. Put everything back together and it worked for exactly one down/up cycle. The power mirrors work, the power locks work from both sides, and the drivers side controls work fine for the remaining three windows. I believe I can hear a faint clicking when the drivers side controls are actuated. Any suggestions? I'm decent with a multimeter, but I can't figure out the next troubleshooting steps. Thanks in advance....

I've searched the site as thoroughly as I know how - nothing that specifically matches my problem that I can discern. I've searched the web as well with little success. I obviously took a gamble with the window motor, but my parts changing days are over. I should add that the security system/key fob work normally. If I can't sort it out soon, I'm putting it all back together. I'm afraid I can't afford a trip to the dealership right now. At least it's not the driver's side! Don't mean to sound like a whiner - just seeking a little help.

 

Anyone??? Wrong forum???

 

Many thanks...

What I can suggest is to check the wires in the harness in the door accordian. Check for breaks. Also check both sides of all the connectors for corrosion or bent pins. Maybe look at the module again.

Checked the accordion sleeve in the passenger door for for breaks and the connectors in the junction block on the right side of the dash. All looks well. Thanks for the reply.

 

I'm leaning hard on the passenger door module as the culprit. Could someone take a look at the book and see what I'm facing in parts/labor if that truly turns out to be the problem? I'm guessing that it would be $400.00 or so ($150 for the part and a couple hours labor to install/program), but that's nothing more than a wild guess.

2004Dually, came across your post for the problem with your power window, just experienced this same issue with one of our '06 Silverado trucks.

 

It seems to be intermittent, as it is now working a few days later.

 

 

 

 

Have you found what was wrong and corrected it?

 

Thanks

    • Even tougher is the 5.0 / 302. That's what this one has.    https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   https://postimg.cc/4n3F3yzY   Just realized I had the airbox removed in the engine pic, lol.
    • Yep! This should be a pin somewhere as @pgamboa really dives into all of this. Thanks for reposting the link!
    • I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.       
    • Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.  
    • I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires.
