![]() Take the door panel off and first check to see if power is getting to the motor. If it is, then try banging on the motor while pressing the "up" button.
My guess is that the window motor is shot but banging on the motor might get the bushings to get better contact and your window might work for a while longer. Also, make sure the wires are still attached to the motor because they can come off after years of use. I've seen it happen before.

![]() My motors went out on my quarter windows a while ago.
www.50resto.com sells a great power window motor/weatherstrip kit for just over a hundred dollars. I need to know more info though. When you depress the button, do you here power getting to the motor or is there no sound at all?

![]() If it turns out not to be the window motor then check the wires. After years of opening and closing the wires that go from the body through that little boot into the door can break. Thats what it turned out to be on my stang. If it is just solder in some new wire and your good to go again.
