Hi all, this morning got in to the car and the mrs put the passenger window down a bit, whilst driving down the road she tried to put it back up but it wouldn't go up, it still goes down but won't go back up, it's electric windows, any ideas?

I had this problem, stripped the door down the other day to find that one of the bolts that secures the motor had come loose, this was causing the motor to move of it's seating when going up. I stripped the lot down, cleaned the bushes and greased the worm gear. put it back together and tightened up with two new bolts.... problem fixed.

Is it trying to move the window up, or just dead?

I have a whole passenger side unit in good working order for sale for a 2 door facelift...
If that's any good.....
