    So I have a 2011 Tacoma SR5, and its been giving me issues for the past months on the right side passenger window. It works when it wants to, per say, one day I can roll it down with the master panel, some days I have to roll it down with the passenger panel. There was one week, that it worked perfectly no issues. Same goes for back side right window.Right back side window, can't roll down, BUT can roll up. Anybody have this issue or recommend a fix to this issue ?

    this also happened to my 2011 o/r. there are a few you tube videos that show how to fix it. it was just a matter of taken the switch out and cleaning the contacts.

    Welcome to TW! Could be the motors on the passenger side are just going out.

    This solved my similar window issue. Switch was just worn out and seems that it messes with the continuity of the circuit.

    This was the exact issue with my 2010 TRD. Should’ve started with cleaning the switch contact points but the plus side is now I have a whole new window motor in there and I learned a new skill set…

    This video helped me disassemble the switch and clean the contact points.
