is the window "square" in its tracks?

Look for obvious things like obstructions in the tracks, wrinkled seals etc.

Thanks for the ideas guys.

The window seems to be "on track".


I think this is an electric / motor problem.
There's no hum or sence of resistance when I hit the window control button.

Gosh, Lance, noone local here in Seattle could help you?

Sounds like your motor is weak. Fuse is, oddly enough, next to hazard
button.

I have the same problem with my 89 325I-passenger window won't move, back
windows having a problem too. The back windows go up only by using the
switch on the back doors-could the front switches be worn out?

I'm in Seattle and my 84 E30 318i windows just quit both at once too...

I've seen this problem in a few places googling the net but no one has
a solution.

Doesn't seem to be the fuse... worked fine last night when I parked it!

I found a wiring diagram but I'm not positive mine is exactly the same,
but it's close:

Best of luck to all!
