This happened last night out of the blue.  All three other windows work
fine.  Everything else electrically works fine so I don't believe its a
blown fuse (unless there's a separate fuse for each power window?).  I
am 4 hours from home and its quite cold out.  I am wondering if anyone
has had this problem before and if so what they did to fix it.  I
suppose I can go to home depot and find some clear 4mil plastic to
cover it up temporarily but I'm really hoping for a fix.  It seems like
there's an easy one.  I don't have a fuse tester on me unfortunately.

Any thoughts anyone?

Thanks!

Push the switch and slam door shut @ the same time, it will loosen the
motor, if it happens more often , replace motor

Johanbg-

Another way of doing it is holding the switch and banging on the inside
of the door.  I did that and the motor unjammed and came right up.  I
won't be opening that window until at least Spring, the cost to fix the
motor is ridiculous.

Thanks

That is how it got stuck in the first place, not using it
