Default My drivers side window won't open

For some reason my driver side window won't open but the passengers window will using the drivers side control. I also hear clicking near the switch or fuses but only when the radio is on and the volume up.


So is it just a fuse or the switch or much worst?

u could try taking the door panel off and hooking the switch back up and see if the moter is even trying to move.

Try the switch and listen really close to hear if the moter is even trying... and if ur other windows are roling down using the driverside switch then its not a fuse cause on most blazers the driverside switch panal is the master panal.

I had that problem, here's what I did, I held the button to go up, kept banging on the door panel while holding the button and it went up. I then went out and bought a small tube of vasoline and put a little bit to coat the window to allow it to go up and down easier. So far no problems. Likewise this also worked with my sisters 300M. It sounds like your window motor may be failing.

How hard is it to take off the panel? Does it require any special tools?

I have had that problem off and on for years..I just bang on it, open and shut the door a few times one of the 2 works. But, I am waiting for the day, it stops all todgether..it will happen..then I will force myself to change the motor out or the switch or both...

This old 2000 LT 4x4 that I have is the prettest truck made, I would post a picture but you know, people would get mad at how good it looks and maybe come here and damage it..I heard the ones that voted for Obama are pretty well steam up right now because their GOD has let them down...So I keep my 2000 under lock and key.
