Either the contacts on the switch are dirty or the regulator motor is dead or there is a broken wire in the door loom (inside the rubber boot). Try pressing the switch harder than usual, this seems to work for me when one of mine occasionally plays up.

I'd start by disconnecting the power window motor and applying 12 volts across it to see if it still worked. - watch your fingers, you don't want to get them chopped off by the mechanism when it moves. If the motor works, then you know it is either the switch or the wiring between the switch and the motor. Hope this helps narrow it down for you.

take the door card off and see if you have power going to the motor and if you do the window regulator is ****ed

sorry for the late reply,as i have no net at moment..:(

ok, i have tried all of these ideas, and it still dont seem to work..
i didnt wanna try and change the motors, but if so, is both driver, and passenger motors the same?

also, where abouts is the module for the windows?
and would it be easy to just bypass the standard wiring and hook it to another switch in the console?
i can rewire it directly thru a relay, but wanna know if its safe enuff to do this idea?!!

i just dont want her car to burn on her while she is in on the highway between Toowoomba and Brisbane..:(
