Window Problem, need help!

[Tvan]

For awhile, my driver's side window would roll down normally, but when i had to roll it up, i would have to press the button repeatedly, moving it only about 1/4" each time. Yesterday i had to roll it down, and now it's stuck all the way down, and won't go up. I'm not sure if this is a switch problem, or a relay, or something else... Anyone out there know how to fix this problem?

Try cleaning the contacts on the window switch.

i fixed it by putting the switch from the passenger's side on the driver's side, but now i'm just gonna have to order a new switch...

i had the same problem... but it worked out by it self, i think its an electric problem

i just have a busted switch... now there's a hole where the passenger's side one goes.
