So I stop by Harbor Freight for some cheap hardware needs on the way home today (10" orbital polisher for $19). Driver's window won't roll down. Thankfully it rolled UP when I pulled into the parking lot.
I got home and checked the owner's manual to see if there was a fuse. Only a 25a relay. I pulled it and re-seated it. No change.
The passenger's side rolls up & down with no problem.
Just my luck.
How hard a job is it to replace these and how expensive?
Sucks for me that the parking garage at work requires a badge-in. Now I gotta open the f*cking door.

You could always back in the garage and stick the badge out the passenger's side.

Funny. Somehow, I don't think backing up into a parking garage'll work. Especially seeing as how it's got a 45 degree just to turn into it and its on a 15 degree grade.
I took the panel off and cleaned the contacts. That helped, but the switch isn't fully functional.
At least they made it easy to get to the switches. There are two slots below the panel at the bottom of the arm rest. And here I was expecting to have to take the whole door skin off. I guess they were expecting them to fail, eh?
Anyone know the size of torx screw these use? I don't currently have any and really don't want to go and buy a whole set just to pull the switches out.
As it is now, I can kinda get the window to work by beating on the switch, but that's going to introduce more problems in the long run.
