Okay, I got the car a week or two ago (90 CV 5.0) and the front passenger side window doesn't work. Big deal, probably needs a new motor, I'll get it when I have the $. I take it to my mechanic and he tells me the motor is fine but the problem lies in the wiring (he said he had the window moving bit by bit) but he didn't want to take everything apart on a Sunday - stores close here, including the auto parts places. We'd be S.O.L if anything major happened when it was apart.
Anyway, we decide I'll bring it back to him this week at some point when we're not busy. Cool. I take the car home, and the window will go down about a centimetre, and goes back up but not strong enough to go up all the way. Damn!
I'm in the car a few hours later, and mysteriously, the window starts working fine..until I put it down all the way and it won't budge. Just my fucking luck.
I had to leave the damned thing sit outside my girlfriends house with the window wide open (nothing of value, people don't steal from cars 'round here anyway). I was trying to figure out how the hell I'd get it back up before I went home for the evening as we're getting rain and plenty of it..then the window lurches back to life, stronger than ever! It's just as fast as the others now and has been working flawlessly (well, it "skips" a little on the way down, but they all do) for hours. I have absolutely no idea what happened, how it happened, or why it happened, but I'm glad it did.
