Mike,

I've deleted your duplicate of this question from General Tech Help. Please DO NOT multiple post questions across the forums.

I've also retitled this thread to draw attention to the issue.

Graham

I'd remove the door trim, disconnect the wires at the motor, and apply power and ground directly to the motor. If the motor works this way then you know you have a wiring issue between the motor and the switch.

If the motor doesn't work then you'll need to repair or replace it.

Also, the windows can become physically stuck...often because the felt channel is creating bind. Silicone spray can help here....unless the channel is deformed


Cheers

Do what Doug suggested first.

If this works then check voltage on each terminal of the plug coming from the switch. Put your negative DMM lead on the car chassis (ground) and you should have 12volts on BOTH terminals in the plug. If you don't then I would check the thermal breaker. This is on the auxiliary component panel under the glove compartment.
