Well, my rear driver'* side window is out. Might be the motor or some wiring perhaps. All of the other windows work fine. Let me know if you can help me out a little with this.

Get a window regulator and a motor.....The GM regulators and motors are prone to going out...Almost a technical defect I think.
When I bought by car, the RR window was the only one that wouldnt work. Took the door panel off, whacked the motor twice, it works fine now. Sometimes I have to do this with the passenger sear motor in my 90. The motor just might need some encouragement to begin operating. Don't buy anything until it is determined that the motor is shot.

Do what I do with my driver'* window sometimes.....Just slamm the door reallly hard and it'll work...At least in my case. hehe
Does the switch on the door in the back work? If it does then your switch in the front is most likely bad. If not slam the door really hard... I have the same prob with my left rear and that fixes it, or just massaging the wires coming out from the door going up front with the door open...
You.won't.know.what'*.wrong.until.you.get.a.Voltme ter.in.the.door.
I've.had.the.drivers'.pod,.the.door.switch.and.the .motor.go.out.for.one.door.
Pull.off.the.inner.panel
Unplug.the.window.motor
Hook.your.voltmeter.to.the.wires
-12V.down.12V.up.
See.if.you.have.power.
Don't.buy.a.single.part.until.you.diagnose.this.
