Initial Prob:
When i bought the car the guy said he had a problem with the window being stuck up.
I proceded to go to the junkyard to pick up a new regulator for the window.
Viola! :rotfl It worked.... for a whole 20minutes.. :cry: Now my window is stuck down instead of UP. :wtf2:
Regulator is still in functioning order.. Everytime i hit the switch i hear the click coming from the regulator..
So i thought maybe i fried my window motor because it had started to rain at the same time my window got stuck down.... :slap:

Just picked up a new window motor fresh out the box. :mike . connected it up just to test functionality. And behold same problem. Regulator clicks... Motor doesn't move. :poke: . I Tested the wires with a wire tester... blue lights up, green is dead on the connector to the motor.. :mad: .. But seems like my switch may be the problem? Or is it the wires themselves? It only clicks in one direction.. when i pull it up.. regulator does not click. Pushing it down causes it to click. :confused:

:poke: I need a quick solution to get my window up, maybe a bypass or can i jump the motor somehow :gotme ... we have a rainy season coming up and this is my daily driver to work. Please Help.

My window does the exact same thing. I haven't permanently fix it yet, but seems to be a bad connection between the connector and the regulator. Try pressing the connector into the regulator firmly, or pressing it in and up, or in and down. You have to hold it that way while pressing the window switch. That makes mine work for now. I havent had the time to mess with it yet, but I think the terminals in the connector aren't making good contact with the pins on the regulator. Shifting the connector around usually gets it going.
