thanks for the tip. just tried it again and still the same, motor click down, nothing up. guess i'll have to run home now before it rains and start messing around with it...

oh by the way, no chance of moisture. car is always garaged at home and it hasn't rained in 3 or 4 days.

If the car has been out in the rain or has been washed, even in the last few months, it would pay to rule out the possible water/moisture issue under the driver's seat. The carpet under the seat, running to the rear firewall, has such thick foam that it can literally hold water for months and go unnoticed. In the meantime, it can slowly lead to corrosion of the circuit board inside the module, etc...

Regards, Maurice.

thanks for the tip! went out and verified that the carpet was dry, no problems there.

Looks like the problem solved itself, though. after letting it sit for a few minutes, i went back out again and started the car up. while running, the window functioned normally, so we're good to go. some type of wierd motor glitch or something...
