I recently bought a 2000 Sprotage and the right rear window doesn't work at all; and the right front window is very slow. Can someone help me out? I'm no electical engineer so if you have had this problem and you can possibly explain how I can fix the problem 'from the top' I would be very greatful. Thanks In Advance

There is a TSB for rear window regulators in this Sportages with production dates between 6-1-00 and 3-11-02. An improved part was released. There is also a TSB for front window failure to close at highway speeds (not while parked). There is an adjustment clip to fix this problem. If it doesn't fall under these categories, you're going to have to visually inspect the components and trace the wiring out with a power probe or a meter. In your case, I would suspect a motor or regulator for the rear window (assuming the master switch doesn't operate it either) and would start with a visual inspection for the front.
