no movement with the window. I can not move it all with the switch or by hand

just so i explain it right the window right now is closed. The top of the window will not tuck under the rubber gasket on the hard top. When i press the switch nothing happens and if i tried to push window down manually nothing happened. It won't move at all. My question is if i am going to change the regulator or motor how do i get the window down to access the bolts i need to get to ? I am figuring it is my regulator that is burnt out. At this point I will wait for more info. I am trying to be as clear as possible . Thank you for your help

Can someone tell where is the relay for the power windows. Also is there more then one relay for both windows. What I mean is there seperate relay for left/side windows. Pictures would be great

There is no relay(s) for the power windows.

So the only way to see what is dead would be to take it apart. Does anyone know if there is any other way to test if the motor is still good. Thank you for the answer about the window relay. Also how do i get the window down to access the bolts on the clamps holding the glass. Is there some kind of trick. I have read the window project but do not see anything about if your window is stuck in the up position.

Well i went ahead and bought the regulator / motor installed in and nothing works still. Seems like no power going to the window. I am so confused since i check the fuse ad people are saying there is no relay for the windows. My passenger window is working fine. Anyone have an idea what it could be? I checked the plug in the box under the seat it seems to b plugged in . There is only one plug i can feel . Please help me out alittle.

I have a similar problem. However, my door window operated normally when opening the door. It just doesn't lower the window quite enough to clear the top frame when I go to close it. It lowers a bit, but not enough to clear. It bangs into the top frame every time I close the door with the window up. Is this the same issue as everyone else?

If you haven't gotten this problem solved yet, it could be the window switch in the center console. They do wear out eventually.
