The window is stuck on something this can happen easy. Check window for some place that it is binding. The motor was hot because it tried to move but couldn't.

Clear up the bind and hope that the excessive heat did not burn out your motor windings.

The passenger front window got stuck down and would not roll back up. the first thing I did was got another regulator/motor (one unit). plugged in the unit, turned car on. YES it works, bolted down

You have broken wires running between the door and the car's body in the boot if you pull it back to the rubber boot you will see the wires broke fix this in your problems would go away

Any manual way to put the window down?

My spring sprung on my 96 grand am window regulatorhow do I get it tight again? and how do I replace the window motor?

You can not fix the regulator, I've tried. Get the regulator and motor together. there are two bolts that are for the window, there are four for the regulator and three for the motor. The motor is attached to the regulator so you don't have to remove it. Get the window down to access the bolts, once you get them out, then push the window up and wedge it into place. the regulator has 4 bolts, two on each side of the door. remove these. Remove the 3 bolts for the motor and fish the whole unit out of the door. Then reinstall.

Passenger window, will operate at times then will not other times

Two problems. Def window regulator or motor. Remove door panel. Remove window motor, take apart inspect, you should see three plastic plugs. 'replace with plugs or ball bearings. Pack with grease. Remove door regulator. Using 1/4 punch punch out rivits. Then drill out aluminum plugs with 1/4 inch drill. Replace with 1/4 in bolts and locking nuts. Windowe regulator can be purchased on line much cheaper. May want to replace all of them, when one goes bad others will follow.

How to install a rear window regulator on a 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue

How do you remove door panels and replace window regulator on an Intrigue? Answer : For a 2002 Intrigue – Front Passenger I didn’t disconnect battery. You use window switch later to align window tabs to regulator frame – with ignition off power locks work, nothing is exposed.
1. Remove visible screw under armrest, pop out finger inset oval panel, remove exposed 2nd screw. 2. Pop off door handle trim – lock button assembly slide thru its hole in door panel. 3. Pop off window switch trim/holder – slide thru its hole in door panel. 4. Remove 2 slot screws under bottom of door.
5. I used a smooth metal letter opener (or old fork) to pry panel from door at each point plastic fasteners insert into metal. Start prying a little, see three on bottom perimeter two inches from edge. Three on door open edge and three on door hinge edge. Slow and easy = whole panel will pop off. A metal compression spring fastener connects at top door hinge edge trim – pry out. Be sure door lock and window switch remain inside. Clean all surfaces of door panel and lay on back seat.
6. With panel off you see clear plastic moisture sheet stuck to door with black rubbery paste - peel it from door for reattachment. You now see mechanism and fastener points. Lay out replacement window regulator and motor on mat by door to help you recognize fastening points, etc.
7. Carefully pull glass all way up and hold in place with two pieces duck tape two feet long with ¼# removal tabovers. Put a foot on outside glass and loop over door frame a foot to inside glass – with room to later redo when you twice lower and raise a foot to access bolts removing/attaching it to regulator bar.
8. Remove 3 bolts holding motor to door. 9. Remove upper 2 bolts and lower 2 bolts holding regulator frame to door.
10. Lower window to expose thru panel cutout area two bolts holding glass tabs to regulator, retape securely. Remove bolts, raise window, retape securely by looping over door frame.
11. Window regulator and motor assembly comes out as unit. Unplug window switch tab to release from motor. BEFORE reassembly clean the inside of the door, put in a little Borax for bugs, etc.
12. Reassemble by starting three motor bolts, fitting regulator assembly in door cavity. Replug window switch, motor can be placed in thru oval slots, leave all bolts loose. Replace two upper and two lower regulator bracket bolts, leave loose.
13. Turn on ignition, use window switch to lower window glass regulator tab bracket until accessible thru panel cutout. Turn off ignition, manually lower glass until tabs align with regulator bracket bolt holes and tighten these bolts. Take tape off, turn on ignition, raise window to top.
14. Tighten three motor bolts and four regulator bracket bolts, make sure alignment is OK. Remove your tape residue - clean goo from both glass sides with Goof Off. THEN raise and lower several times to assure all fits and works like new.
15. Reinstall clear plastic sheet, aligning any fastener holes and rubbing down perimeter with a cloth .
16. Align door panel, assure door lock and window switch are pulled thru. Visually align each tab on door opening side and pop them in one at a time. Continue on bottom – make sure you see them align or they will break. Finish on door hinge side and with metal fastener at top. IF you break a fastener, take one from small bag you bought from Pep boys - otherwise take bag back for refund…
17. Reinstall 2 armrest screws and 2 bottom panel screws, then pop in door lock, trim piece and window switch.
Clean the window inside and out with glass cleaner/polish/raineze so it will slide easily and your done. You can’t do anything about the motors going out. You can avoid regulator tab breaks by making sure the window is raised BEFORE closing those big doors – down is the weak moment!! I work slow and clean as I go, the job took two hours. I highly recommend partsgeek.com – saved a bundle over dealer and they shipped everything in several days – as ordered!

How do i remove the passenger window in a 1994 ford probe gt?

Door Glass and Regulator REMOVAL & INSTALLATION
  1. Lower the window glass and remove the inner handle cover, door lock knob (if necessary), the window regulator handle and the door trim panel. NOTE: On vehicles with power windows, disconnect the wiring couplings.
  2. Carefully peel off the door screen so that it can be reused.
  3. Replace the window regulator handle and position the door glass so that the door glass installation bolts can be removed from the service hole.
  4. Remove the door glass installation bolts.
  5. Remove the door glass. Remove the regulator installation bolts, and then remove the regulator through the service access hole. Remove the window motor mounting bolts and separate the motor from the regulator.
  6. Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure. If the vehicle is equipped with power windows, connect the leads of the motor to a battery and run the regulator to the down position before installing the motor. Cycle the window several times to make sure that everything is in good working order.
The door glass retaining bolts can be removed through the access hole
