Default Passenger Window Problem! Not the Lock

The other day I went to put my windows down and the passenger would not go down. So the first thing I do is check the CHILD LOCK switch and its ON. Then its started to work normal for a couple of days,and now it is stuck. When I push the button I hear a clicking noise under the passenger side dashboard.
Does anybody know what is causing this? Is it an expensive Fix?

My 2002 did that last summer. No sound in the dash however. Took it to Honda to fix. Honda said the wire connection was loose on the window motor inside the door.

check your fuses? does top work?

the clicking sounds like a relay but theres no relays for the windows

can you pinpoint where the clicking coming from
if the clicking is from inside the doors than it could be your motor/ regulator thats bad

not sure but i think the passenger and convertible top maybe linked and the click could be from the convertible top control unit

check your number 18 fuse

Ive checked the fuses, but ill check them again. The top goes down but the passenger window does not go down. The clicking noise is coming from under the dash on the passenger side.

dont know too much about s2000 and how everything works in them yet

i would get to the convertible top control unit .. put your hand on it and get the clicking noise to happen.. see if you feel this unit click.. if so.. its most likely bad

Yeah i went under the dash and it is the convertible top control unit that is clicking when i push the window button. Why would that unit affect the passenger side window?Anyways ill look in to replacing the unit thanks for all the help Reds2k

a lot of searching and found this, i,ve been thinking that this was the problem, because i replaced the motor 3 times and the switch is new.
the only thing is that i still get power to the wires going to the motor. im going to replace this and find out. did anyone knows if VINASITY fixed this?

The unit under the dash controls the top and the windows.

There is a full trouble shooter you can use in the helms manual it will help isolate the problem for you. Mine wouldn't work, after testing it was the module itself. I bought a used one for 50 bucks. It's all plug in.
