As of this afternoon the window worked fine. Then all of a sudden it wouldn't go down ll the way. It goes all the way down untill there is about an inch or window showing then it stops and there is huge draw. The radio shuts off and all the lights dim real bad. It would go back up no problem and it would go all the way down again untill there was about an inch left. Anyway then it blew a fuse or something because now the window is completly un-responsive and there is no draw. Does anyone know where the fuse is? I looked under the dash and hood and I looked by the relay and can not find it.

Thanks

My guess is there was a loose/frayed wire in there that shorted...

Time to open it up and find out. :(

time to open up the door

Either a short , blown teeth in the regulator, rusted inner door panels sropped down and are blocking hte regular, giant hornets nest with very angy hornets (Ive had em)...

Lube up the track and the regular while ya gots it apart...
