Rear window not working 05 XType
Driving home from lunch put down passenger rear window I hear this terrible crackling sound, and the window doesnt go up or down
If I use the switch, I can hear the motor though
I managed to get it up almost all the way buy inching it up by hand but it wont go up all the way - its almost an inch from being all the way closed
and it wont stay in the position
I'm going to go outside and tape the window so no water/air goes in the car
possibly a gear or something got stripped?
HELP

pnyklr, sounds like to me that the window mechanism bit the dust. The window is driven by a cable. Sounds like either the cable is binding or the gears on the end of the cable gave way. Either way, you are looking at a new cable assembly. You can confirm this by pulling off the door trim on the inside and looking at the mechanism. I think you are going to find this will be pretty obvious of a problem.
