Auto Glass: 2001 sport trac window, mechanical skills, proper tools


Question
Hi Ben,   my drivers side window went down and now will not go back up.  You can hear a relay click when the switch is pressed either way.  What does this sound like to you?

Answer
Hello Don,

I think it is likely that you have a bad window motor.  The first thing you should do is to test to see that the switch is providing power to the motor.  If it is, it's almost a sure thing that the motor has failed.

If the motor is bad, replacing it isn't too difficult if you have some mechanical skills and the proper tools.  

Feel free to send me a follow up question if I can help you with anything else.
