Power locks and passanger windoe
2003 Nissan 350z performance trim
Last night it rained hard and I rolled both windows down for a bit then up for some fresh air. (Wasn't hardcore rain at this point.) but turned the car off and keys out. Open the door and both windows rolled to half. Then it fixes itself.
Next morning I rolled both windows down and tried to roll one back up. The passenger. It wouldn't come back up after rolling it down. But also. The power locks on both sides do not work. I also notice the light on the emblems of the power locks on the passenger side was not lit up. I checked all harnessed and cleaned them and nothing. Tried resetting but it doesn't respond. I can hear the window motor move a tad bit when I click down but nothing when up. It could be the motor but what can cause the power locks to go out...?
The key fob still works when rolling down the windows and up for the driver side.
At one point after disconnect the harness and reconnecting on the driver side the locks work. Then goes out.
I need help getting that window up. I tried banging the side of the door method already

Check the switch, check for shorts (particularly in the door jamb area), check relays, fuses, grounds, etc.
These can be a pain to track down. I'd definitely start with the switch if you're finding that the windows will go up and down using the key (assuming you're talking about turning the key twice in the driver's side door handle).

Zombie Thread...different day same key fob problem.
Zombie Thread...differnt day same key fob problem.
I have almost the identical problem. The interesting part is the key insertion. In over a dozen tries I actually attained the results of the program. I would see other strange things at other times. No turn signal flashing, just a fading clicking, like a background noise. 2 turn signal flashes only, then nothing, or just nothing. I can't believe it is so difficult as to fail repeatedly. Also the same symptom referenced by Original poster. The remote worked well until a little later, a couple of hours then it was dead. New battery / new remote. Everyone seems to think the receivers are infallible....At the same time, my car doesn't make contact with the key chip sometimes and doesn't turn on the fuel pump so won't start. Remove the key lock, unlock the doors, try again. Sometimes it takes 3 tries, then, starts right up. There has to be an over arching cause to theres problem. I've seen the same complaint all over the internet, but little if any explanation.
