It seems that the motor is f***ed or maybe just the wires are broken..how can i be sure that its a motor problem or just the wires?

the window is not responding when i push the window button, sometimes i can press the button and nothing happen..then when i close the door the window just go down..

i wanna be sure whats the problem before buying a motor,and then i go to the car shop and they told me that it was just a wire problem!:P

ill wait for ur answer..thanks in advance

Evidently for it to go down it must have went up.

I would look at the switch. If you are concerned about the motor, pick one up, you may well have to have the door apart anyway for the switch.

Hey bud,My left window screws up too. It works, but sometimes it freaks out and rolls down a few inches on its own.

It could be the switch too...I'd try to do the motor reset first.

mine does the same. If you use the automatic window up it will go up and then come down 1/4 of the way. It's pretty funny actually. I can live witht it.

go ahead and pick up a window motor,its a common problem especially with coupes,I replace driver and passenger window motors all the time,don't try to change the motor unless you know how it all comes apart though....hope this helps

I had the same issue with my '04 Coupe.

Luckily, mine was under warranty, but they did have to replace the motor....
