Before you go and replace the regulator you should use a 12 volt tester to see if your getting power to the Motor first . if your not check the switch next if there is power there look at the door jam for broken wires this is a common problem. if the motor needs replaced then tape the window in the up position , Drill out the rivets and remove the power wire and the the motor the replacement motor will come with bolt nuts and washers , if not you will need a rivet gun for the replacment rivets . just revers your steps to install. remember when working on any type of power units always disconnect the ground terminal on the battery.(Black) lead to the battery, Good Luck !

My 2004 GMC Envoy SUV midgate window won't go up!! any ideas??? The switch is okay!!

Relay maybe .Doesn't look like a relay is involved for window . Looking at a wiring diagram an using a volt meter to test electrical circuit would be the way to find the problem . Do you know how to test automotive electrical circuits ? How to read a wiring diagram ?
Midgate Components
The midgate consists of the following components:
• Midgate window switch
• Midgate latch release switch
• Midgate window regulator
• Left midgate latch
• Right midgate latch
• Midgate latch relay
• Midgate 25-amp window regulator circuit breaker
• Midgate 15-amp latch relay circuit breaker

Midgate Window Control
The midgate window is controlled by the following:
• Midgate window switch
• Midgate 25-amp window regulator circuit breaker

Reading a little more from service repair manual i do see a relay , it's part of the window motor assembly . Could possibly be the window regulator . You need to take midgate panel off an look inside . Test electric to the motor while in then .
Midgate Window Operation
When the midgate window switch is activated to Up, battery voltage is supplied to the coil of the midgate window up relay in the window motor, energizing the relay. When the window up relay is energized, the window is driven in the Up direction.
When the midgate window switch is activated to Down, battery voltage is supplied to the coil of the midgate window down relay in the window motor, energizing the relay. When the window down relay is energized, the window is driven in the Down direction.

    How to replace power window regulator....

    Hello, before replacing the power window regulator, always check to see if the window motor or the regulator is the problem. Turn the ignition key ON and listen for the window motor,if the window motor can be heard when you move the switch and the window does not move, the regulator is definitely bad, and if the motor does not work, the motor is the problem.This is a common problem for the window regulators to go bad. The cable is probably fine but the plastic piece that the cable locks into i bet is broken. These are not replaceable you will have to replace the whole regulator. Beware of aftermarket ones they are not as good as OEM but they are very expensive at the dealer probably about 250.00 to 300.00 dollars.

    Thanks

    To remove the window motor on this truck remove the door panel to access the window regulator and motor assembly. The regulator might be riveted in so you will have to knock out the rivets to remove it and replace them with bolts and nuts.

    Broken Ford Focus 3 door 04 reg Window Regulator. Can I replace myself?

    If you search Google for Ford Focus Window Regulator replacement, you should find a great deal of information. The front doors are different from the rear (sedan, station wagon) doors. I've replaced the rear window regulator and it wasn't hard but the front window regulator is very different from the rear regulator.
