Default pwr. drivers window (UPDATE)

more damn problems. Drivers side window won't go down but the rest of the windows will with the driver'* door controls.

What do ya think? Motor go out?

UPDATE: Actually will now work once in a while. Is there a short in the system? Didn't wirk this morning after my 20min. drive to Auto Shop, over at another high school. But then worked after driving over to my regular high school.
This is wierd....

you might want to take the door apart and try to bang on the window motor, does it feel hot? it just might be stuck. I have also known switches to go bad

They are seperate switches, as far as I know anyways. I would expect 1 of 4 to go out. If they all died at once, you'd have much bigger problems

You might be able to swap out the switch with one of the rear ones thats not used much? Either way you have to remove the door skin and might be a loose connection at the motor or poor ground?
