    I have a 96 Honda Civic LX sedan which has a problem with a passenger side
    rear window. The window goes down but now cannot be raised. This problem was
    intermittent for a while, where we were able to raise the window after
    letting the car sit without the engine running for a few minutes. But now
    that doesn't work either. All the other power windows and the rest of the
    electrical system work fine. Thanks in advance for suggestions.

  2. The power circuit goes through both the switch in the door and the
    corresponding switch in the driver's panel. Try the passenger's control,
    then the driver's control. If the driver's control works it is the actual
    suspect, because the other side of the switch (the one that makes contact
    when the switch is centered) probably has failed. Ditto if the passenger
    switch works and the driver's doesn't - the working one is the suspect.
    Non-intuitive, eh?

    Doesn't sound good. It sounds like it's the regulator.
