Power Window Does Not Work

[bobt993]

Chris, I went through extensively on my car.  First check the switch, do the easy thing and change switches, if not the switch, check for voltage to the primary contact of the switch.  You need a multi-meter to find the "common" switch leg.  If no voltage, check the fuse.  Next is the real pain, remove the door panel, check the motor input plug on the motor/gear assembly.   If voltage is present and switching at the motor, now comes the fun.  Remove the motor assembly from the door/window mechanism (this takes an hour). After the assembly is out you need to take the motor off the gear assembly  and the back off the motor itself, clean the armature brushes.  Add voltage directly to the motor and run it.  As a Chilton's manual says, repeat steps above in reverse.  You can also just buy a new motor if you want to spend the $$$

I had to do this last year and has worked since I cleaned no problems at all.  If you get the door apart, I can stop by and help with the rest....
