Driver side electric window will only rise 1/2" from full down
position. I believe there is a regulator somewhere in the console that
is bad. Does anyone know were the specific location is, the part name
and can be purchased. Thanks in advance.

the door that takes a walk.

Ussually about a $200-300 part from the dealer.

Well you were on the mark. It was the regulator in the window. I
examined the failed unit and it was a very small plastic gear that was
cracked through. Repair cost $274 at Nissan dealer. The service writer
also told me to use silicon lube on the rubber that the window rises in.
Supposedly reduces resistance ?. and improves life of motor/regulator
parts. I am not sure but its worth a try.

Yeah but then the window gets all greasy and your cleaning it constantly, I
don't do it.
