Yes, I hear a clicking under the dash when I press the button my wife accidentally rolled it up all the way I told her not to because it would get stuck, so I wanted her to leave it about an inch from being up.

Hi,

The power window motor changes direction when the power supply to it changes direction. If you are hearing a click, that is odd because there are no relays involved with this. However, it could be a circuit breaker you are hearing.

At the window motor, there are two wires. There should be a white wire with a black tracer on it. Disconnect the connector and check of there is power to that wire when you try putting the window down. If there isn't, confirm the opposite wire has power when the switch is in the up position.

Let me know what you find.

Take care,

Joe
