In my 2005 Civic LX sedan, the passenger's side rear window will go down, but not up. My first thought was that it was the switch itself, so I swapped the switch from my driver's side rear door to the passenger side, but no change.

Has anybody else run into this? Is it possible that the motor will only work one way?

There are more threads where people have the same problem, but this is a start. His problem was the wire, itself.

My dad and I did a bit of testing today with a test light, and whenever he supplied the ground to whichever wire, the window would operate normally.
