Hello there.....This happened to me on the same window....The control module ( aka the temic unit) was faulty. I am assuming this is the same situation with you. To access this you will need to to take the insides off the door. I managed to remove this temic unit and was left with a bare window motor. I connected a 12 volt power supply to the motor terminals and the window was wound up. The power supply I used was a battery charger and polarity is not important, if it is winding the window down you just reverse the polarity. hope this helps rgds Maurice.

Sometimes removing and reinserting the blade fuses behind the cover on the left of the inside of the glovebox.
It's as though the Temic 'trips out'.
The ignition needs to be off, there are symbols on the fuse cover for what they do and 3 look like windows, just remove them all and put back in the same place and then turn ignition on and try windows. If this works, it usually happens again pretty soon.
Good luck.
