I have 1993 Nissan 240SX.   The power Window on the Passenger side is stuck
1/2 way.
I have removed the passenger door cover and have full access to the
cables/switches.

How can I diagnose where the problem is?
Is there a manual override to pull the window to TOP position.

Replacing the motor is an expensive deal.

Thanks in advance,

Rath

Download the 200SX RS13 manual from
http://www.silviaaustralia.com/techinfo.asp
It's the same body shell as the 240SX so the door electrics should be
the same.

If the power door lock does not work too then suspect the power feed
to the door or the overload circuit breaker - trips if the window
jams.

are you comfortable with mechanical abilities?  if so, (assuming you
have checked fuses, connections, etc.) you could check for power
availability at connection nearest the motor.  you could try applying
a separate power source to motor. if motor responds, check related
switches and wiring.  if motor does not respond, you could remove
the motor, disassemble it, checking for need of lube, worn parts,
open winding, etc.  if you are cash lean, try a used auto parts yard.

I had the same problem, but the dealer wanted $70
for the new switch.  I took the switch apart and found
a worn/melted pressure pad that presses the switch
leaves.  I super glued a .015 piece of Kraft paper to
the top of the leaf on the worn side, cleaned the contacts,
and fixed the problem, the window has been working
fine for months.
