You can pull easily the window panel of ds door and check the window switch. I found on my power mirrors the plug wasn't fully plugged in.

I am actually having the same problem with my drivers side door but mine will go up if i put pressure downward on the glass. I talked to JD, Ziggy, and Neal all last night about it, still havent figured out what is causing it but i did figure out if i unplug the motor and push the up button as i plug the motor back up it will go up. Maybe something for you to try.

This sounds like a bad motor with brushes that are sticking. Sticking brushes will sometimes not work and make you think you have wiring issues when it is actually a motor that needs replacing. BTDT many times on fords back to 84.
