My driver side electric window assembly collapsed and the window fell down inside the door. The motor is still very good, but I need info and/or a diagram of how it is assembled in order to repair it and get the needed parts. Can you help me with this problem?

The drivers side window fell into the door of 96 rendezvous. How do i put it back on track?

The door trim is held on with a combination of screws and push clips Once you have the trim off you will probably find that the window motor regulator is defective. I would recommend replacing the regulator and motor as an assembly.

Are you sure of the year? Didn't think that they made a 1996 Buck rendezvous

Drivers side window switch clicking

Larry if the window does not go up or down its likely that the gear driven assembly or the motor on your electric window for the drivers door is bad. You will need to disassemble the door by removing the door panel to gain access to the electric motor. Hope this helps you will want to gain access to a service manual from a local parts store to help you with this venture. Good Luck

Window glass wont move

Most likely the sound is coming from your "window lift assembly" being torn up. Your window motor attaches to the back of the assembly and winds up the cable that raises and lowers your window. Most likely the cable has come unattached and is grinding inside. 
You can buy a new assembly from Autozone (about $100 is what they usually run) and replace it. The first step is to remove the side panel from your door. Once the panel is off you can see where your motor is bolted on to the center of your door. Remove the motor and then unbolt the rest of the window lift assembly. Be careful though about removing the pins that attach your window to the lift assembly. Due to the curve of the glass, it only takes a little pressure to shatter the glass. Once the window lift assembly is replaced, put everything back the way it was before and you are good to go. 
It is not that complicated of a job, it just takes a little patience. Good luck!

Driver side window is off track and stuck about 75% closed

If your power window motor is not moving up or down at all inside the door panel, you will need a new motor.
If your window is stuck and will not move, it is the motor - it is bad.
If your window falls down into the door panel, the window is off track.
Replacing a window motor is an easy fix, get another one from an auto parts store and replace it.
Good luck!
