Check the fuses, check the wiring between the door and the door frame. It isn't uncommon for one to break there.

ok, i checked the fuses and they all work. i tested the switch and that also works. i did not see any broken wires in the door panel. now i tested the wires that are connected to the motor and there is no power running. i also tested the motor with a direct wire from my batterie and it spinned, iam assuming its working. could it be something else?

Did you check the wiring between the door and the door frame? It is in a rubber boot.

The only thing you can do at this time is trace the power supply until you find where the power is lost. Not a fun job, but that is what needs done.

This was sent in by another member trying to help via email,..... I had the same problem as member Cabrera....my Venture Van 2002 power windows were not working..Problem is under the carpet passenger side front....the carpet gets wet...the wire connections corrode and disconnect the circuit to the window. This is more than often the problem so pull up that carpet on passenger side near to the front door sill.
