What he said!!! I recently bought a 2004 and have the same problem, the driver's side window simply quit working. New power window motor came with the car, apparently the previous owner had the same problem. "But it just started working again"! Can anyone tell me where to find instructions/photos on tearing the door apart and replacing the motor? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

If you slam your door while holding up on the window button then the window will go up.

I had this problem a couple weeks ago. Slammed the door and have no more problems.

if you have to slam the door then there has to be a loose wire in it somewhere

What mustang said. I know mine sometimes gets stuck and I have to either hit the panel near the speaker or take the panel off and hit the motor area or grab a screw driver and lift the metal bracket up just enough because it just goes to far down. Only once or twice a year though.
