Window wont roll up
« on: February 27, 2013, 08:55:56 PM »
I have power windows. The other day, right before snow hit my passenger window decided to work again. About a month ago I noticed it was no longer rolling down. The other day however I noticed the window was down about an inch. When pressing up the window goes down and nothing happens in other direction. Right now the window is stuck half way open..
Any suggestions?

Try it with the door open, and maybe someone assisting it.

With the panel off check all the connections for corrosion, then have someone work the switch as you check things with a multi-meter. Wiggle the harness a bit too, check for a broken wire that's making intermittent contact.

Take all four panels off and lube everything up. If one's bad the rest need attention as well.

AMC/Jeep gauges are for amusement only. Any correlation between them and reality is purely coincidental!
