elctric window problem=

Post by jamesmetairie »

2003 with electric windows.
1st time problem=
today the drivers window jammed going down about half way.
it wouldn,t budge.
then later it worked ok.
anyone having any window motor or track problems?
note = couple of years ago i brought the vibe in to a dealer for the "recall" work to do with the bolt in the door affecting the window.

make sure the bonded tabs in the glass aren't broken off the glass.

I think I know what is your problem... I have the same with my 05 non-power window...

On my side, there is a part in the door that is coming in contact with the window : The little arm that avoid the door to open too large

Could be several things.
-glued tabs on bottom of the window that have already been mentioned.
-bolts that keep the tabs connected to the track have come undone.
-door check getting in the way.
-bent regulator.

Only way to tell is to take off the door panel and see what's in the way.
In mine it was the glued tabs that came undone.
