* When the window does not open or close when using the switch but you can hear the motor running (please see note).
* When the window has dropped into the door.
* When the window's movement is unusually slow.
* When the window does not go down or up all the way.

* When the window goes up partially, then drops back down again.
Manual Windows
* When turning the handle, nothing happens.
* The handle becomes very stiff to operate.
* The window will only partially open or close.
* The window drops down into the door.
NOTE

As the regulator is, in most cases, part of one assembly with the electric window motor it might be necessary to replace this whole unit.
