Default Window wont go back up?!?! HELP!
ok so i rolled my windows down going to work btw my passenger side window motor is going out, it goes a lot slower than the driver side, well i get to work and try to roll my windows up.....my passenger side window goes back up no problem but my driver side window wont do anything at all! no noise no movement no nothin! i checked the wires on the door and those seem to be fine, and since my passenger window went back up i ruled out the fuse.

Im really at a loss does anyone know anything else i can try?? and i work in a kinda shitty neighborhood so i really need to get it back up ASAP! thanks in advance for any advise!

Sounds like the motor is bad, thats what they do when they go out. Let it "cool" off for a while and try it again.

don't roll that thing down until you replace the motor. Be glad it didn't rain

If it gets stuck again, try kicking the crap out of the door until it works!

You should do it from the outside of the door, it seems more effective.

It does sound like a window motor, don't get it from a dealership though you'll get ripped out the ***. Go to AutoZone, they're cheaper
