Power Window Problem

[SweetCavy]

I have a 98 Cavalier z24 2.4 2 door. My problem is my drivers side power window will not work. A mechanic told me it was the power window motor, which he now replaced, but it still does not work. FYI my passenger's side window does work properly. Now I was told to replace the power window switch (in the center console)??? I was wondering if anyone can help me or give me advice before I pay more $$$$... Thanks!!

I Love My car and Chevy but why can't the stupidest things just work.. instead of being a pain in the butt

my car is doing the same thing, my idiot friend mashed down the button and held it there and now the driver side window does nothing. If I find a solution to this problem before you do, i'll be sure to let you know. Otherwise HHHHHEEEEEEELLLLLLPPPPPPPP!!!!!!

well most of the time it is the switch in the console, but mine is starting to do the same thing but i think it just needs lubed up, but you can find a switch in a junk yard for cheap and i think sunfires and cavaliers use the same one so you double your chances of finding one.

but this is a very common thing in these cars and if a cavy owner thinks they dont have this problem they will sooner or later

Well mine does the same but mine does it on the passangers side, and the only way to make mine work is by pushing it over and over till it goes down..making it go up does not give me a problem but i will let u guys know if i find out what the problem is..!

if you can get a switch on ebay i recommend it. I got mine brand new from the dealership and it cost me 160 bucks. but at least the window works again.
