My driver side windows suddently doesn't work when i was driving!!! The switch has sound when i press up or down so i'll assume it's not the fuse or lose wires and the passenger window works.

Is there anyway i could wind the window up manually? Does anyone know what is wrong? Could it be the motor since there's still response if i press the button?

this might sound stupid... but can you push it up a bit (at least for the time being) ... you used to be able to that with old cars... dont force it though...

tried that but couldn't get it any higher, does it sounds like the motor?

i had this happen to mine a while back

take the door trim off, then disconnect the wires, clean them with a nylon anti rust brush or eqiv and replace

I've tried taking out the door and had a look yesterday, the wires seems ok & can't see any lose wiring or anything wrong. Funny how the switch makes a ticking noise everytime i press up or down so i'll assume maybe it's the switch? Any suggestion anyone?

found out what happen, it's the door switch faulty so it's a easy replacement, hopefully panelhouse will replace soon hehe
