My drivers side power window is stuck 1/3 of the way down. I need to fix this problem to repair a broken door handle on the same side and door.
I wanted to start with the fuses, however, all the other windows work (front passenger side is sluggish to start). I was wondering if the window motors had separate fuses, or if they were on one fuse.
If it is not the fuse, I need to get the window up either manually, or jump at the switch, but not sure how to do that. Need some guidance.
