Try using both switches, the one on the driver's door and the one on the passenger door.
also, check the fuses under the hood, each window has a fuse

Then you either have a bad window motor, a wiring issues, or the window control module is bad. If you download the shop manual it gives an entire rundown to find the problem. I'd guess most likely the window motor is bad.

Also, make sure the drivers side "child safety" switch is not on.

So i kind of fixed it, i connected the motor to a battery and it went up and down perfectly and got the window, so my conclusion something in the wiring correct me if im wrong

You may be on to something...
Fuses, wires, master switch connections, control module connections ( in driver door)

Definitely a good sign, everything else should be pretty easy to fix.

I've had the same problem in the past, and had the same results when hooking it up to a battery. Here's your problem. It is the window switch on the passenger door. You need to remove the switch and take it apart, there are brass contacts inside. Clean them up good with some sand paper. Re-install and I bet it will work fine! Might want to take the extra time to do the other switches as well to prevent the other windows doing the same thing at a later time. But, if you just do the one switch, it will correct your issue. Also, to make your windows roll up and down better, spray silicone into the felt track. It makes it so much smoother. Hope this helps.

Also, to answer your question about the door panel. They are not difficule to take off. Might be able to find a video on Youtube. Just remove retaining screws, pry door panel from door to remove clips from door. The lift up to remove. Read the repair manual or watch a video online to see how to do it.
