All of my windows roll up and down just fine except my front window on the drivers side. I have been looking into it I think I may have to get a new motor? I was thinking of going and buying a motor but I don't want to if I don't need too. I just want it to roll up. It sounds like it is wanting too but it wont.

Good evening.

Can you hear the motor run when you command it up?

Can you upload a video of what you see and hear?

Yes I can upload a video soon, but it sounds like it is trying to roll up. In the beginning I was able to hit the door and it would roll up but now it wont at all.

Can you pull it up while hitting the up button?

It could be the regulator as well.

Okay, I saw that from the beginning of the original post.

I would get the motor and regulator, as they come as an assembly and replace it.
