Power Window Problems

I have a 1988 F-250 XLT and the power window on the driver side just stopped working. (window up)
I can't hear the motor running at all.
The door locks and the passanger side work fine.
Please help!

Likely a cooked motor. Best source for a reasonably priced one is the junkyard. The parts puller can tell/show you how to get it in and out.

Look at your battery guage when you hit the window switch. If it moves your motor is just in a bind. Loosen the bolts on the motor and try it. To make it easier drill holes where the dimples are in front of the motor bolts. You might have to pull it out and clean it.
