C5 drivers window quit working

[vetvirgin]

I have a 2001 c5 convertible. Yesterday the drivers window stopped functioning. Right side window still works fine. Checked my fuses and there’s no problem there. Looking for ideas as to what might be the cause before I spend big bucks on a repair.

You should be able to pull off the door panel and check for continuity to the switch, regulator motor, etc using a multimeter to isolate the problem area. I had to do that 2 years ago on my 2001 z06 and ended up replacing the regulator and motor. not a fun job but I fumbled my way through it. You might get lucky and find some crusty connections that can be cleaned and you'll be good to go.

Thanks much for the advice, I’ll see if I can narrow it down. Have to go get a multimeter. Really new at all of this but the only way to learn is to try.
