extremely stuck power window
Tuesday I got in my 2004 escape and put down the drivers side window. Just after that I smelled a very strong ozone smell and the window would not go back up. The smell was coming from the door. I pulled the fuse from the power window system to prevent any sort of fire or such. Now I have tried to raise the window enough to replace the motor and regulator and it is totally stuck. I hooked the power back up and held down the window button while trying to lift the window and still no luck getting it up. I have the new motor and regulator and could have that installed quickly if I can move the bleeping window. suggestions greatly appreaciated. I am also going to check the switch when I get home.
Thanks

It's prob stuck because the glass is kitty-cornered in the frame. I assume the door cover has been removed. If so, look at each side and see if you can determine the stuck side. You will have to detach the lifter from the motor and manually lift the glass up in the frame to get it level again.

Thanks I will check that when I get home. It did not look off kilter, but I did not look real close since I assumed it was straight. I will definately have to remove the motor from the lifter to raise the window. It may also be that the motor is totally forzen and locked things up.
