Default Window wont roll down but has power

My window flexes when I push it to roll up(its already up) but there is nothing when I push the button to have it roll down. I took the door panel off and the motor is plugged in.

Searched around and cant find any real threads other then people having issues and not really getting answers.

Any help would be great thanks!

If you have power at the window motor and the motor doesn't work then it stands to reason that your motor is shot. I would test the motor for power and see if you need a new one.

plugged in doesn't mean its actually getting power....

like the person above said...test to see if the motor is actually getting power to it first, if yes and its not doing anything the motor is junk

The motor gets power, it just wont roll down. It powers the window up but since the window is already up it, all it does is flex it.
