Drivers window not working
Can anyone give me some advise on my C5 drivers window no working. The passenger switch works and I don't believe it is the motor. The reason being my alarm has an option to raise and lower the windows and I used this option to lower both windows. However, when I use the same method to raise only the passenger window raises. When I push the switch I can hear a clicking noise. I appreciate any direction from anyone. Also, is removing the control panel a major headache. Cheers.
Can anyone tell me if the vehicle has been converted to right hand drive whether a replacement RH regulator needs any different conversion or will it just be bolted on. Cheers

If you hear a click and it does not go up/down, then it is your motor. Your relay is working to send power to your motor, but motor no work. (purposeful bad grammar). Replacing the motor by itself is a PITA. Replace the entire motor and regulator assembly in one shot. I found a brand new GM unit on Ebay for $80.

Most likely the motor or regulater went or the relay is bad. Could also be the door switch.
The relay can still "click" but if the contacts are bad it will not work. Pull the panel off and jumper the motor to test it first.
The relay is inexpensive and can be replaced. If you want that info let me know.
