Is this a broken window motor From the time I bought the car up to now the drivers side window motor has always been sluggish. Well today I went to wax my car and I had both windows down to listen to the radio. After I was down i pulled my car back into the car port and when I went to roll the windows up they didnt roll up not one bit. It didnt even flinch. Has my window motor finally kicked the bucket.

I would double check your switch and make sure its making contact. In my experience, when my window motors kicked the bucket, I was warned by the following symptom...
Window goes up half way and stops. A few seconds later, push the switch again and the window goes up a few more inches. Repeat until the window goes all the way up.
Right now my pass window is sluggish but goes all the way up every time (so far). I think I'll find out soon exactly how that one dies (especially now that I wrote that).
