If your 97 is like my 98, then this is the easiest way to get out the old pw motor. You will need a Phillips head screwdriver, drill with about 1/2 inch bit, a pull strap and a ratchet and socket (i think it's a 5/16 inch socket) . Start out by removing 2 screws at bottom of door panel, then pop off black plastic by mirror, then pop off trim around buttons, remove screw by the door handle, lift straight up on door panel to get above door lock knob. After the door panel, plastic, etc... is off , you see the pw motor on the middle of the left side, you will notice the metal clamp with a pull strap around the bottom, (it is pop riveted in, cut the pull strap) you will see 3 small holes on the door (roughly 1/8 inch) drill those out to expose the mounting bolts holding the pw motor in place (hold up the new pw to see and compare bolt holes), now that is about the easiest way I can tell you, hope it works for you. Btw, to get the bolts started back in the new pw motor, you might want to use a piece of tape, or something to hold bolt in socket or you will probably drop them several times due to finger space. You understand when you see it.

There is only one fuse for all power windows. If only the passenger side window does not work, the problem is either with the passenger window switch or the motor on that window.
