Front passengers window problem, not working on hot weather
Hello everyone I'm new here.
I have a 2005 Mazda 3S and I have a problem with right front window of my car, it doesn't go down at all, when I press the switch nothing happens and if I continue pressing the switch sounds a clic on the window but again nothing happens. The weirdest thing is that it happens mostly at the day when the weather is hot or very hot, because at night when the weather is cold the window works just fine, I don't know what to do, I think I'm going crazy with this?
Do you know what it could be ? I read something about a problem with a plastic or something like that on the windows mechanics that doesn't work on hot weathers? Is that true?
Thanks for your comments

might be the switch
something I found:
2004 – 2005 Mazda3 with VINs lower than JM1 BK**** ** 329150 (Produced before April 12, 2005)
DESCRIPTION
On some vehicles, after activating the driver’s power window one-touch down function, the window will stop halfway down. This concern is most likely to occur a few times after the vehicle has sat in high ambient temperatures.
A new Power Window Main Switch has been established to address this concern.
Customers having this concern should have their vehicle repaired using the following repair procedure.
REPAIR PROCEDURE
1. Verify concern.
2. Replace the Power Window Main Switch with a modified one according to Workshop Manual (section 09-12 POWER WINDOW MAIN SWITCH REMOVAL/INSTALLATION).
3. Verify repair.
If you need one, I have one for $200.00

So, what you are saying is that the problem could be with the main switch ? If that is correct then why it doesn't work with the switch located on the right side (the one on the passenger door) that's the one with the problem. Because the other windows work fine is just that window that has the problem.
Thanks
Thanks

The power for the passenger side runs through the drivers master switch. Meaning if there is an issue with the master switch it has the chance depending on the problem to mirror the effects to the other switches. Test with a volt meter to make sure you are getting the signal to the passenger switch when pressing it.

I had this problem with both passenger side windows and the master switch was replaced (4 years after I bought it). The cost stated was about the same as stated. Now I'm having a problem with the driver's side window only, it works fine on some days, then it won't go down at all, I just hear a clicking sound.
