'87 Laredo 4-door...
all of the power widows work fine except the front passenger window. it'll roll up, but not down! when i press the button to roll it down, the ammeter drops, so the power is going somewhere. after more than a few seconds, i also notice the "electrical" smell (you know the one!) and the wires going to the motor get really warm.
i pulled the door apart and there is no obvious blockage or anything that would keep the window from rolling down and overheating the motor. anyone have any other suggestions? i don't think the motor is bad since when it does roll down (oh yeah, this started out being intermittent, now it just doesn't work at all), it rolls up without hesitation.
Thanks!
Chuck
