The gear, that is attached to the actuator that moves that window up and down, may be stripped out or the actuator may be getting jammed at a certain point. The only way to really know for sure is to pull the inside door cover off and watch the actuator when you make the window go up and down. DO NOT PUT YOUR FINGERS NEAR THE ACTUATOR WHILE IT IS MOVING. Just take your time and you will be able to figure it out.

SOURCE: 1998 Sunfire power window problem

Probably not related to the accident. The motors are prone to wearing out and overheating. You should be able to get a new motor for about $50. It requires removing the door panel and drilling out 4 rivets, then removing the motor and replacing it. Harder than it sounds...but not impossible for the do-it-yourselfer. The way those motors work, the difference between up and down is not the wiring, it is the polarity on the two wires...which is controlled by the switch. A bad switch can also cause it to not go one way. The switch costs more than the motor. Your local auto parts store may be able to test the switch and motor for you. You can also use a voltmeter on the motor connection and should see a polarity change in up/down.

Passenger seat in 1999 Pontiac sunfire is jammed forward

normally the seat tracks are bolted to the floor or riser. It is possible that when the seat was moved forward the track moved over the head of a mounting bolt and will not return. check for interference between track and rail while trying to return seat.

I have a 2000 Pontiac Sunfire and my passenger seat isn't going back at all. Its stuck right as far as it can when u adjust the seat and push the seat all the way as far as it can go to the front....

It could be off track, the tracks could be full of debris an/or the release is not fully releasing. Start with a visual inspection, a good cleaning and some lube. Silicone spray moving parts and see if it helps.

I have a 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix se. Both the drivers side windows will not go up/down. I removed the rear door panel of both doors and the small metal cable has come off. Is there a diagram or a fix to...

I had a problem similar to this but mine was in a GT and they would just work when they wanted to. I just had all the wires cut leading to the front passenger seat, back driver seat, and back passenger seat. And left the wires on the main. They all work perfect now. But the downside is that the driver is the only one who can put the windows down. (Which isn't always a bad thing) Hope I could help!

2004 Pontiac Sunfire Power Windows Do Not Work Properly

Same problem. I had the driver window go first and then the passenger. You must replace the motors. Moisture has gotten into the motor and rusted parts of it. New motor cost be $55. It took two people (myself and a friend) a good 8 hours to extract old motor and install the new one.

Where is the resistor for the heater blower located on my 2000 Pontiac Sunfire 2.2L ?

Replacing the blower motor resistor on a 2000 Pontiac Sunfire is a bugger of a job!.This project is far easier if you remove the blower fan first. You may be able to do it leaving the fan in, but you have to be an elf with very good eyesight. Tools required: 1/4" driver with a universal and a short 5.5 mm or 7/32" socket. First remove the wiring harness and the visible screw. Here's the tricky part! The rear screw is out of sight, and you have to push the floor liner down to get the socket attached. Once you get the 2nd screw out, simply remove and replace with the new one, reinstall the fan motor and your back in business. Hint: If you are not agile, or you are a large person, remove the front passenger seat. It's only 4 nuts and it will save your back. Good luck and hope this helps, keep me posted be glad to help.

The pull down on a 05 is in the trunk. There is 2 loops on the underside of the upper trunk body drivers side. Pull loop and push seat forward from trunk until it releases. Left side loop is for left side half of seat and right is for right.
