More than likely the plastic clip on the WINDOW REGULATOR has broken, allowing one of the control cables to jump off track. Cheapest place I have found them is www.rockauto.com

My 2002 Ford Taurus SE driver side window is stuck down all the other windows are also not working now. Thought it might be a fuse so went and bought fuse relay but don't know where the location is to put...

If you can hear the motor run when you operate the switch, it isn't a fuse problem. It is a mechanical issue. Pull the door panel and get in there and figure out what you need to fix it.

Power windows not working

1 does the led's light up on the master window switch [drivers side] 2 when you rocker the drivers side down can you hear a audio click down under the steering wheel. the i/p fuse panel is down there where you rest your left foot.3 power is from battery saver relay to master ins. relay to one touch window relay. this is the one you should hear click. the back side of this fuse panel calls out the locations down there. the owners manule also helps some.4. if you take the interior door cover off remove the screw on extenstion on door lock and one screw under plastic button where you pull the door shut.arm rest support bracket. the rest is held in place with snap in plastic buttons [christmas trees like]. the door latch unlock should slide out of the opening when you slide it froward.there are 4 male/female electrical connections, 2 to the master door switch.one to the power/heated mirror, 1 to power locks. 5. don't unsnap them yet.with a test light you can check for battery voltage. on the master door switch the blue/black tracer wire should be hot[12 volt dc]. at all times. put one end in the backside and the other to a bolt or rivet on the door. the light should come on.next with one end on the blue/black tracer and one on white/black tracer rocker driver side up/down switch, the light should come on.there are only 13 wires on the master window switch 2black wires are ground, 2blue/black tracer[hot] 1 red/blue tracer should be [hot] when you unlock the window lock rocker switch.know the passanger and back seat switches should work. switch it to lock and they should only work from the driver side master switch.the 8 wires left are 2 for each window one up one down.try this with a friend it makes it easyer. good luck doug.

Power windows.

Everything runs thru the drivers side master switch,may be the switch but..
look inside the rubber boot between the door and the body(razor blade)The wires tend to break in there due to the drivers door being used more
than the rest.A wire connector or some fancy soldering work is the only fix without pulling the whole harness.

4 Door. Drivers side rear window has dropped down

window regulator has failed. Look for an after market one the GM replacement is junk. Usually it is a clip that holds the cable to run window up and down. probably a safety clip used if someone gets cought in the window, GM will charge you over $400 for the fix. not hard I have it down to about 30 min. and around $100 for the regulator.

The driver side window wont raise

well if the window goes down it is not the motor. the switch maybe.....but most likely a broken wire in rubber tube between door and body

Electric window only goes down half way

On the inside trim, you can remove screws that are by the door handle, arm rest, under door and side of door and then gently pull back on the panel as there will also be retaining clips attached and you don't want to break them. You'll need to lift the door panel upwards in order to get it off the window ledge. Pull back the weather seal. It sounds like the guide rails may be loose and snagging the window. Or your regulator may be broken (not likely)
