Drivers side window working sporadically

"It's not the switch, its the driver side window motor itself. Like anything else thats mechanical, it wears out over time and the driver side window is always the most used in any vehicle.

Pull the door panel, then the motor, and clean the apature and the inside of the housing. Theres tons of shavings from the magnets built up in there. Itll run like a champ afterward. You might wanna do the frint passenger too while youre at it."

"Wolfgang,

Your switch sounds like it's on it's way out. Start by changing out the window switch with one from another window. If that works, then the switch is likely your problem. If the problem persists, the you may have to change the window terminal block. One of these can be had at a junk yard but be sure to remove the harness back to any clip or plug. If you try to cut and splice that many wires it can lead to problems.

Good luck

"Check the wires that run from the driver side door, you can move to boot to check the wires, I had 6 wires that were broken into half. Get you some wire and clear wire connectors

so you can match the wires up. $6.00 to fix the problem."

Cleaning the motor housing worked like a charm. Thanks

2005 Equinox drivers side window not going up or down. But you pull or push it works. But sporadic. Also passage side does the same.

Cleaning the housing did the trick for me too, THANKS!!
