Man, a lot of people having window problwms in the last week.Pull the door panel off, a pull the clear plastic off, but be careful, your going to put this back on, ( it's a water barrier ) and check your cables and tracks, this is the regulator portion, and see if your cables are frayed, or if the tracks is the problem, it,s possible to lube tracks and cables, if they look good, maybe the motor could be gettin tired, my motor went out, and I bought a new motor and put it in, I also took the regulator out and checked it out, it was fine, you cant lube the motor it's pretty much a sealed unit, lube the splined shaft comeing out of the motor before sliding it in to the cable pulley, I took out my inside door handle and rod, for more access, and wedge the window in the up postion, with a rag and a screwdriver, or if you have plastic wedges, It's not hard, if you have the right tools, it's just takes a little patiance(sp), because it is a little tight inthere to work. you will have to unplug the electric locks,window and mirior, plugs from door panel. Sorry for the book, but, i hope it helps.
