first of all, thank you to all who responded to my dilemma regarding the heater-a/c vac. hose diagram. i finally just got under the hood, traced the 3 vac. lines, and simply replaced them, and guess what? I NOW HAVE A WORKING HEATER AGAIN! OH, HOW NICE NOT TO GET TO WORK WITH FROZEN LEGS! ok, enough of that, on to my next problem......the pass. side power window is inop., will go down, but not up. my cheap repair manuals(chilton and haynes) do not go into enough detail as far as R&R, and the stupid FSM has nothing at all on the power windows! NOTHING!! and this is a "Factory Service Manual"?

so will it come up if you help it? is the window binding (track need alignment)? or is the motor simply weak (replace motor)? or is the signal not getting there (bad switch)?

replacing the regulator or the motor? if the motor is doing nothing I'd say the regulator is not the problem and the motor needs replaced, the window motor replacement on the Z32 was a royal pain I hope the Z31 is easier
