The window regulator is probally going out , or theres a short in the wiring. Have you taken apart your door panel to check it out?

yes, clean it with contact cleaner and make sure the connections aren't corroded. Also check the wires in the door jam and make sure none are broke,

Mine do that too incold weather, but its really frickin cold up here too. like less than 30 everyday. mine **** the bed again. I think it may be the plug that comes from the switch to the relay. what a pain in the ***!!! Anyone have a FSM and can tell me what to do about a code 21? any help would be great, I just got an FSM and it has not arrived yet!!
