Drivers window quit working recently. It's not the regulator, I am familiar with that. Just looking for some confirmation on my troubleshooting...

all other windows work as designed, no issues
removed the door panel
checked the connectors and pins, no issues there
pulled the motor and module off the panel to see if the motor would run when not connected to the window regulator - to verify the window assembly was not somehow jammed, not running at all
pulled the operator switch housing, functions well. cleaned contacts and re-installed, still not working
pulled the actual motor off the module assembly, checked the brushes and cleaned the commutator, still not working
swapped the motor with one from the rear window (not the entire module, I know they are different), still not working
finally checked the auto down function with the key fob - the other 3 windows roll down, not the drivers

So my thinking is this - must be the module that is attached to the motor. the other 3 windows work fine so it is not a power supply issue. it's not the switch since the key fob won't roll them down.

Anything that I am missing and does anybody have a wiring diagram for the drivers window module?

thanks

Yep, I did. It was a bump with a joke. It's been my experience that AZ members are usually pretty quick to respond if they have input on an issue - and with the driver's window inop, I'm kinda anxious for a resolution.

sorry if I offended your sensibilities.....bro.

It might just be your window switch

this is what I think, bro. I think you did a good job on diagnosing, though. Good luck, bro.

bump for anybody with a wiring schematic of the drivers door.....pleeeeeeze

noticed that I have no lights on the door either - no window button lights, no lock light, no puddle light - got to be related somehow
