I have a 99 Chevy Silverado with power windows. The windows has stuck in up
position. When I activate the button to the down position I hear a clicking
sound in the door panel. 2 questions, should I assume it to be the switch
or the motor and how do I remove the door panel?

That's really crazy because that same thing happened to my truck (i
have the same make, model, and year as you) this weekend. I took it to
my friend and he tried beating on the door a little bit before he
started taking anything off. So first i would try that. Next what he
did was unscrewed 3 bolts: one on the bottom of the panel, one under
the handle, and one under the panel of the Lock/Unlock and power window
switch (you have to pop it off with a flathead screwdriver. After this
there's a couple other plastic pieces that have to be popped off but is
easily done with a flathead screwdriver. Once all of them are taken off
then it's just a matter of pulling up on the panel and freeing it from
the door. As soon as my friend did this he took a rubber mallet to the
motor and gently tapped it. This freed up the window and it started
moving again. Try doing that and then lube up the tracks and the motor
and putting everything back. Hopefully this works. Good luck!
