My back window wont roll up at all

My window is stuck about midway down and the motor wont even kick in to roll up. You can hear it kick in to roll down and then with about a 15 second delay the window will roll down. What could the problem be?

If there is a pause from when the motor starts to when the window moves it is a worn or faulty window regulator, the motor not starting when you press the up on the switch could be a bad switch, if you have a meter check for voltage at the switch when you press up.

SOURCE: windows wont roll up and down and hazard continues

These are two separate issues.The most common cause of the clicking is the hazard switch located above the radio.Replacing this generally takes care of that issue occassionally it is a malfunction in the turn signal switch but most likely the hazard switch. If all windows are affected would check fuses first.If the windows roll down from the corresponding switches example rf allows rf to roll down. If not suspect an electrical issue such as fuse or relay.If they do roll down from the switches on the doors but not the drivers door possible a master switch issue.Drivers door contains a master switch that controls all windows.Do the windows work at all?

Problem number one sounds like a dead battery to me. Problem with driver door is the cable in your window regulator is broken and bound up. Will need to replace the regulator. Passenger side window problem could be caused by a number of things... most common that come to mind are window guide not in correct position or one of the bolts that hold the window to the regulator has come loose.

First thing to check is if the window has fallen off the track. You will need to remove the door panel to look at the regulator guides. See if the window glass is aligned with the regulator guide. If the alignment is correct then you will need to replace the power window regulator because it has failed. Click on the link below to view the part you will need:

Window problems

the window motor itself has a plastic gear at the end which drives the mechanics of the window system. if you hear this grinding noise, chances are that this gear is stripped. unfortunately, this means replacing components like a motor, regulator assembly or both. the problem as you described will only get worse if not handled. it could leave you in a situation where you dont have a window at all...

Try tapping lightly on the door panel in different places,while the key is on,and holding the window switch in the up position.sometimes,that will jar the motor and the window will work.
