Hrm...correct me if im wrong, but wont the passenger window not roll down if the window amp is fried? This happened to me not to long ago. It actually came down to my window motor being fried

Not necessarily. On early S14s, the amp box only handles the driverside window. The amp feature for the passenger side window is built into the switch. Why the hell Nissan didnt do this to begin with is beyond me. Later on model S14s didnt have the amp box, and the amp feature was built into the switch themselves.

Like already stated, most of the time, for early S14s, the problem is a bad amp box. Most folks just resolder some bad joints on the board. Mine didnt have anything that looked bad but I replaced it anyways and fixed my driver side window issue.

Ahhh!
Gotcha, thanks for the clearing that up for me. That makes perfect sense.
