1990 Cherokee Limited, power everything.
I took my wife to lunch on Saturday, I drove. While we were out the driver's electric window stopped rolling down. I was driving, so naturally it was all my fault.
I was hesitant to look at it because I went through the trouble of removing the passenger side regulator 2 years ago; it made me cry. On Tuesday she persuaded me to look and see what the problem is. I found that one of the wires had broken off where it went into the electric motor:
Since it looks like the harness is not serviceable where it enters the motor, I went fishin' in a box of computer parts and came up with a tiny sheet metal screw. It looked like it would fit the inside of the wire conducter that broke off in the motor. I crimped an eye on the wire and went to town with the screw.
So far, so good! It should buy me enough time to get a new regulator and have some good weather for installing it. That right there is your redneck fix for the week...
