It is likely either a window switch, or the window track and regulator causing the issue. It might be the window motor, but most often it is either the regulator and window track causing the issue. You could try jumping the switch to see if it activates the motor, but my money is on the regulator/window needing replacement.

SOURCE: Passenger window for a 2003 Venture, won't roll up

If it is a power widow-pop the switch from the arm rest and then unplug it from the wiring-may need a screw driver the first time as the hold down clips may be snug. Make sure in ignition is off and then take two large paper clips and pull them open and bend to a U shape. Jumper one from the black wire to the dark brown wire and the other from the medium blue wire to the yellow wire. Turn on the igition and the window will go up. Works everytime on my 2004. I now leave it unplugged so it won't accidently get opened. Go to the wrecker and get another switch, if you can find a car that has one left in it.

SOURCE: power window fell down, won't roll back up

I just had that happen on a 2000.
It was the window regulator.
I ordered a new one on e-bay.
Changing it involves taking the whole door apart, and you can do it yourself, if you are really "mechanical".
You would need to pay particular attention to where every nut & bolt goes, and replace exactly.
The window regulator is made of several metal pieces and some connecting wires or cables.
It is complicated if you are not familiar with it.
You will be needing to take the glass out of the door by rotating it, so you can install the new regulator.
Be blessed.
