power window help

[Ryencool]

Ok, my driver side window (s13) has been weird for a while now and I want to fix it. When I hit the power button to roll it down it goes down about half way, then just drops. When I try to roll it up the motors runs but the window doesn't move. I have to pop the door panel off and pull it up by hand which is gonna get annoying this summer. Anyone have any ideas as I have never messed with a power window before? thanks

could be the motor i just helped someone replace one

also the cable that brings it up and down may have gotten caught in the gears. i just replaced my whole thing, was worth it, i use to put my hand through the bottom in the door panel to push it up, it sucked.

yeah its alot easier just buying a new or used motor...

Hey, I have this problem now... the window goes down and just drops, and the only way it will go up is if I pull it up by hand. The motor sounds solid, but when I press the up button the motor just spins. Is it the tracks, the wires, the gears? I need this problem fixed asap and I buying a new one isnt an option.
thanks

The cable has either frayed or slipped of it's wheel, just pull and replace the regulator. The motor should be fine unless you see it's damaged as well when removed.

the door panel comes off in like 3 mins, and then look and see what is wrong with the assembly.
