Not sure if this is in the right thread.

I've been having a problem with my power window button. It's my drivers side. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. Anyone else have this problem?

Tear the door panel off and find out. tongue.gif Make sure the wiring is ok and that the regulator still works. Those are the main problems that occur with windows.

I have a similiar problem but on the passenger side. Everyonce in a while, the window won't go down but if I turn off the car and restart it, it will roll down.

Also for stupid people out there (like me) if the passenger window doesn't go down, make sure you have the window lock off. lol.gif To the eye, there isn't much difference between when its down or up.

Same with me. Sometimes the drivers side window wont go back up, but usually if I turn the car off and back on again it'll work and go back up.

Same thing happens to me on occasions. Sometime the window decides to work and other times it doesn't. Not quite sure what causes it. Probably a loose fuse or something.

Did you by chance ever take apart your window switch and remove the buttons?
If so, you have to put it back together preciseley the correct way for it to operate properly. Otherwise the button may not "catch" all the time, or others it will stick and stay down unless you press the button the opposite way to make it level.

If that's the case, I can show you how to put it back together. Each piece is NOT interchangeable. If not...check the wiring.

I had this problem before with the passenger side window expect it rolled up TOO far and would go over the seal! That was the regulator then, i wasnt sure if it would be the same for this.
