I have a 2001 pontiac grandam and my driver side power window doesnt always work. i belive it has something to do with the wiring cause it works at times and then doesnt. i dont think its the motor cause if the window is already up and i push up on the button i hear the faint sound of the motor working, but if i push it down theres nothing, no noise or anything and the window doesnt go down, but all the other windows work fine, what could it be?

It sounds like it's either the wiring or the switch is bad

Could be a switch, motor, etc., and as far as wiring, I have found in most cases if you open the door, their will be a rubber boot, that holds the wire harness. Open the boot, and look at each wire for breaks. What happens is that over the years from opening and closing the door, the wires get weak and break. Check that first, then go to the more exspensive problems.

Could be switch, wiring and yes even the motor could be going bad.

probably a short in the wiring, or fuse. Happened to my Mark 8 once, it was the wiring.

check the wire connected to the power.

Either a flaky switch or a flaky actuator.
