Default my window!

so i was driving my car yesterday with the top off and the windows down. its a 2002 Camaro. my mom drives it today and the windows wont go down. i had no problems with it when i drove it so i'm guessing the window motor jsut broke? what would cause it to do that all of the sudden? and how much is a new window motor? i'll check ebay but is there one u would recommend?

Usually they'll get slow, stop, recover, go up a little, stop etc. giving you some warning - at least mine did. Both windows won't go down or just one? I'd get a replacement from Autozone or other local store with a lifetime warranty so you'll never have to pay for one again. Tell mom she broke it and has to pay for it! J/K of course.

Yep they will sllooooowww down then eventually only work in when cold. Then they won't work at all.

Time to take off the door panel and replace the motor...
