Question Window won't go up! HELPPPP!

So, my passenger window stopped working last week. So today when messing with it it would go down, but not up! It only responds from the passenger side window control too. I've tried using the drive side switch and no movement in either direction and not audable noise of the motor clicking. When I press the button for the window to go up it doesn't move nor make a noise. But when the window was all the way up I was able to fully roll it all the way down (but sadly not back up). I'm completing stumped on what's broke: the window motor, the passenger switch, driver switch, or does my car just hate me for leaving it sitting for two months?

FIRST OFF, @SpeedDemon26 you only have to post in one section ...... .....if you double post it just gets us old guys confused ....

OK

First thing I'd check is the fuse. It's in the #14 slot (25A) in the fuse box under the hood.

While you're there, might as well check the other sides fuse also (#10 position).

If the fuse is OK, the next thing I would suggest to do it take the switch out and test it.

Then we can go from there .....

Calling @Ultramaroon - he is a window expert .....

Have you checked if the window lock switch isn't accidentally pressed in?

My 2013 Scion FR-S doesn't come with a window lock switch. Unless it's a hidden feature I was never told about haha

I tried both fuses by the way and it didn't fix the problem. I appreciate the idea though!

Check the reinitialization process in your manual.

Well, did you toggle the nonexistent switch yet? We're all holding our breath here. Slow day in FT86-land.

Oh, dammit. It would've been too easy. Well, if you've verified the fuses, are handy with a multimeter, and don't mind removing the driver's side door card we can continue. Otherwise, I recommend a pro.
