Default Power Window in-op

Drivers door worked fine this morning, dead this afternoon. I am guessing it is the motor/regulator assembly. Volts drop around 1.0 when the button is pressed then rise back to normal. I can hear the relay click when I hit the button then click again in a few seconds. Sounds also like the motor may be cycling. Any opinions? Also is the motor and regulator one assembly or may they be purchased separatly? Or should both be replaced together?

Thanks in advance.

Try slamming the door while depressing the window switch. This will sometimes get the power window working again. It has worked for me with both the driver and passenger windows. I try to operate them occasionally to keep them in working condition.

Ron,

I will be doing a write-up with pics once my parts arrive. It looks like I will be doing this the weekend of the 28th.
