Okay, here's another theory: The travel of the windows is constrained by two
limit switches.. When you raise the window, a switch is operated to disconnect the motor from the car's battery when the window reaches its upper limit; and when you lower the window, a second limit switch is actuated to disconnect the motor when the window reaches its fully retracted position. Both doors work this way, and they do this whether they are open or closed - that tells us that both switches on both doors are mounted
inside the doors!
I believe the upper limit switch in your driver;s door frequently gets stuck in its "disconnect power" position; that's why you can't always raise the window!
Remove the covering on the driver's door (the Service Manual tells you how to do this) and locate the two limit switches - they are probably identical. If the window is down, the lower limit switch will be activated - that may be obvious. The other switch is the errant upper limit switch, stuck in its "disconnect" position. Jiggle its actuator to see if it comes loose. if it does, try raising the window - it should work. If you can't loosen the switch, connect its two terminals together with a jumper wire, or maybe a screwdriver, and try again to raise the window a short distance; do not raise the window all the way when the upper limit switch is shorted! If you have found the faulty switch, look for its manufacturer's part number and google that, order a replacement switch and install it. Happy motoring!
Let us know if this works; also what part of Texas aree you in? It's unlikely that we're neighbors...
