Help! Drivers Side Power Window

[Don Schraegle]

I have a 1994 Corvette. Several days ago, the drivers side window will not go up and down. Passenger side works fine (even from the switch on the drivers door). When you activate the button, nothing happens. Could it be the switch.

It could be. It could be a bad motor as well. Do you hear a noise or anything ?

No noise, no sound at all. Since it's easy to remove the switch, can anybody check it to see if it's functioning.

I had a bad right right window on my 92 and it was the motor. A good cleaning with a spray electric cleaner did the trick. I sprayed the motor, then pushed or pulled on the window while trying to lower or raise it and then sprayed the motor again once it started working. It's still working.

I had to replace a window switch on my 89.
Remove the switch and check it with a Ohm meter if it is good then check the motor but I think their is a good chance that you won't get continuity through the switch.

No noise, just nothing

Here is some information from the owners manual. First thing I would do is what has already been suggested and that is to check the switch for continuity. It is the quickest and easiest of your options to solve this problem.

Here is some information that might be helpful if you have to dive into the window to replace the motor.
