Electric window fault

[pacman1500]

I have a problem with my drivers side electric window.  The window will go down but won't go up.  There is no noise or movement at all when i press the up button.  The passenger window is working fine.  If anyone has any solutions i'd appreciate the help.

It doesn't harm to try the simple stuff first; try to 'reset' your window button, see this topic:

If that doesn't do it then flip out the button by sticking a flat plastic (or screwdriver) under it and check the wires and reconnect it; try if this has fixed anything.

I'm afraid you'll come to the last option though..🙄 Your window regulator might be broken; You can replace it yourself easily; just take of the door card and bolt in a new one (make sure you get one with the little motor). There are probably even video's on youtube about this.

Hope this helps.

it could be a faulty switch. If you get the connector off the switch you could use a bit of wire to bridge the two terminals that the switch would put together if working. I can't tell you which two wires though, it would possibly need a wiring diagram consulting. But it might be obvious from the layout of the terminals on the bottom of the switch.

if it does turn out to be the switch and need to fix now and not wait for new one, maybe change connectors over so you can use the passenger window switch on the drivers door for the drivers window.

Thanks for the responses.  You were all 100% accurate, it was the switches.  Typical of me, the most obvious solution is always the last one i check lol
