Yeah, sounds like you need a motor for the window alright! My SS needed a motor two years ago and the car only had about 25k miles. The motors are garbage to begin with. Some guys say the switch can be bad but I haven't seen one yet that the problem is a switch and not the motor. Go to Autozone and buy a motor, they are warrantied for life, make sure you keep the receipt. I think I paid about $65-$70 for my motor. I used the install directions online because you have to drill the rivets out to remove the OEM unit but in order to get to the rivets you have to drill through the inner door shell; sounds worse then it really is. Do a search and you'll find the directions.
