Window problem
My rear driver's side window isn't working. I moved around the switches and they all work. Before I go scavenging for a window motor what else should look for? I checked out the fuses in the engine compartment and all are fine. Thanks in advance.

my rear drivers side door has a short in the wiring. to fix it i have to open it up all the way and slam it shut.
sounds ghetto, but it works for me.
at least you dont have to spend lots of money on a motor and not ending up needing it.

remove the trim at the lock, mirror corner panel, pull off are rest handle cover, unbolt handle attachment to door, unhook the lock rod, unscrew and remove the seat switch, then pull UP or you will break the plastic hooks...
