Left rear window was stuck. Had to slam the door about 15 times but it finally did the trick and now it functions as it should. Sad that my car had the right rear regulator replaced under previous ownership when I'm sure this trick would have worked.

Great thread!

Tried the door slam fix several times on 3 different occasions. First 2 tries failed to unstick the window. Tried it again yesterday and it appeared that it was not going to work again......the switches didn't work. I was driving the car this morning and Halleuia, the window works now! Thanks for the help, just keep trying if it doesn't work the first or second time, third time may be the charm!!!!!

Default Rear power windows don't go down

Thanks,
Because the windows are not operated regularly, The rubber sticking around the windows. I suggest: After the windows are operating again I would roll it down and then apply light silicone spray along the tracks, front back and top. Then cycle the windows up and down a few times and it should work perfectly.

Then I would cycle the windows up and down at least once a week if you can remember. Normally we roll the driver window up or down every time we get in the car even if for only a small distance. I take that opportunity to auto lower all of the windows. Then I roll them back up. I haven't had another issue with it since that time. Reapplication of silicon spray is optional but I do that occasionally just to make sure they don't stick.
Just my $.02
Thanks

Both of my back windows wouldn't go down but clicked when buttons were pressed. My husband had tried to fix them a couple times. I went out and cranked my car, slammed each door once while holding the down window button, and they each started working on the FIRST DOOR SLAM! Now, I'm the master mechanic in the house
