1998 Ford Windstar
----------------------------------------------------------------
I hava a 1998 Ford Windstar. One day the I hit auto down for the driver's window. It went down smoothly. Minutes later I clicked the up button and nothing happened. It has been stuck down ever since. The button clicks fine and there is no sound when the button is pushed. The other windiows work fine from that same driver's console. Is it a fuse, the motor, or the regulator that needs replacing?

Jumper the motor on the up position and see what happens this will determine if its the motor, possible regulator-tracking/binding

Jumper the motor? What does that mean?

Apply direct battery voltage to the motor it will either go down or up to find its position up and down then go from there-
