Arrow need help quick

Hey all,

My rear driver side power window stopped working on my sedan. I just noticed it today from trying to roll everyhting down. The problem is it won't go down with the front or the back switch. All the rest of them work fine. Is there an easy fix like a fuse or something? Neither switch makes it go down. What else could it be?

Anotherslo1 is an unknown quantity at this point
Sounds like an electical problem. Might be a fuse. You also want to check the wires to make sure none have been cut, for some strange reason. Do you hear the window motor <----not really sure what to call it>? Is it running when you try and roll it up? If you do that means it is getting power to it, so then I would check to see if the window fell off the slider. Then finally last if thats not it, Make sure you window motor is working correctly. Other then that I'm not sure. Maybe check the user manual???? Good luck!

hmm... if someone pushes the door close with the window than it could have probably fallen off the slider. The only other thing that I could think of is that the motor or whatever got wet. The last thing that I could think of is that something is stuck inside.

Thanks guys. I'll check fuses. But nothing happens when you press the switches. No motor sound or anything.

sounds like either the motor is toast or there is some kind of wiring problem. Crack that door panel open and check 'er out.

Stupid fuse blew while I was playing with the LED in the window switch. I blew a few more of the same, but it turned out to be for the window and LED. I'm so pissed after doing blue dash lights. It will be my last DIY. I HATE electronics.
