Power Window Non-Op: Talk to me Goose!

[IRQVET]

What am I over looking, probably something stupid. Driver power window is non-op, passenger side goes up and down just fine.

Fuse is fine.
Replaced the door switches (thought that would take care of it, but I was wrong)

Its a 2 door Hoe, and like I said the passenger side goes up and down just fine. But when I hit the driver side button, nada. No movement, no noises.

I don't think those had computer modules operating them, did you test the motor itself yet? That's what I would do next.

Agreed with the above. Pull the connector at the motor, see if you get voltage there when the switch is activated.

You can also inspect for any wire problems at the door jam convoluted tubing where the hinges are. Possible rubbed thru wire insulation problems.

I ordered a new relay that is suppose to arrive today. After I install that and see if the motor has juice and I’ll report back.

Do I need to disassemble anything to get to the motor?

Switch works by reversing polarity to the motor so it runs the different directions. Do you have voltage and ground at the switch?

Forgot to round back. Window is operational again but I have no idea why. Replaced the switch, didn’t fix it. So I pulled the door panel and began looking at the wiring and didn’t see anything wrong. My hand must have brushed against the motor wire, because it just started working all of a sudden. Lose wire?

PW motors get wear on the armatures sometimes banging on the door or just slamming it jars the armature to a spot where it works, until it doesn't.
