I put a thread up a while ago about my window slowing while going down, can't find it. Anyways cleaned it and it worked fine now it won't go down at all. It just makes a buzzing noise and won't move. Any ideas, motor gone bad maybe?
 
The fact that you say it's making a buzzing noise - sounds like the motor is getting power, but it's either mechanically bound (regulator or window channel) or the motor is arcing internally and needs replacement.
 
Yeah this thing is a pain to get into the internals. It doesn't look like it's off track but I can't tell for sure. Where is the regulator?
 
It's the scissor-like bracketry that raises and lowers the window. Motor actuates regulator which raises or lowers the window.

The regulator has little teeth or gears that can strip or bind if they're worn out. Bad motor is more likely though.

I'll do some digging, pulled the panel off thus morning but couldn't really tell anything just by looking at it.
 
Also, when I could get it to go down it rolls up just fine. Once it rolled all the way up it won't go down at all now.
