    I went and actually tried this on my front passenger door when you mentioned this in another thread and it actually worked. Had my LSE for 2 years and thought the motor was shot. To think all the passengers who suffered the south florida heat because that window wouldn't go down.

    Before you order anything, take off the motor and see if it turns. My regulator cable was seized. Probably need to order up regulator with motor. Cheapest and easiest solution.

    If it works you may never have the window stick again....... or it may stick the next time you try to move it.

    My Passenger front locks all the time.
    I have someone hold the down button
    while I use both hands on each side of the window.
    I push/pull down the window and it releases.

    If you have some light electrical skills you can try to apply direct power to the motor, that way you will find out if its the motor or a bad switch!

    Well, I tried the window again while driving with the radio cranked up. It worked fine!

    Does anyone know the bolt size to use when you replace the regulator and motor? where the rivets were because the part does not bring hardware to mount back up. Your feed back would me much appreciated.

    Nothing specific. Just pick one that's close and go with it for all the spots.

    My Dorman regulator came with new bolts and nuts.
