Based on the brief description, there could be many different causes for this problem. The most common cause would likely be the actuator/motor and not the "button" itself. If you are familiar and comfortable enough to do so...remove the door panel and use a multi-meter to check for voltage to/from the up/down switch, and the actuator/motor. Removing the door panel without damaging the reainers or liner, can be a time consuming and frustrating task. If you have't done this type of work before, at least consult a proffesional familiar with your make/model/year vehicle.
I hope this helps, good luck.

Drivers side window will not roll down

Do you hear any humming when the button is pushed? or any noises? If you do, then the Regulator is broken, and will need replacement. I would recommend getting the part from the dealer, Aftermarket China parts are ****. (dorman)

I have a 2001 Pontiac grand prix. My rear drivers side window wont roll up or down, When i took door panel off, i noticed a blue and red wire that has a gray plug, That seems to me should go somewhere,...

it should go to the window motor or the power locks or the power window button.
check window motor with a test light for 12 volts at the plug.
check regulator/pulley system for a broke cable.
