driver side window
Hey guys I have a 1998 jeep Cherokee and today I pulled up at home rolled my window up, worked fine. I come back out to my jeep go to roll the window down and it makes a bad grinding noise. The window will move if you grab it and push it up and down, I don't know if its the actual window motor or if its off the track. It's dark in sc and lucky me i don't have a flashlight to see what I'm doing. Has anybody else had this problem? Thanks in advance guys. Evan

I believe on yours their are plastic gears that get stripped. I have a similar problem and when it was recently at a body shop my buddy owns he said he's seen this quite a bit and in time I'll need to replace those gears. Mine is a 2000 xj so pretty sure that's it.

I tore into it just now and its not the track so the window regulator is bad, luckily I was fumblin around in my shop and found one. Not sure if its in commision or not, guess its time to find out. Thanks for the help guys.

Same problem here with my 90 XJ, window regulator. Sounds like you know what you are doing. I didn't at the time and posted a YouTube video to give some insite for future reference;
