What is wrong if a 1999 Malibu driver's side window will not go down when the motor and switch are ok?

Well if everything else is working, then the window itself maybe stuck. That maybe the only that could be wrong with it.

Cavalier 2002 drivers power window seem to work on and off?
You are going to have 2 things to repair with this problem. The window switch and the window motor. The weak motor has melted the inside of the switch. Yep...been there,done that.Replacing the motor wont fix the switch and if you replace the switch the weak motor will melt the new switch.

How do you fix drivers side window for a 1997 olds silhouette?
I have a 2000 oldsmobile and i had this problem with the drivers side. come to find out it was the switch and not the motor. If you check with a local junk yard you can pick up a good one for half the cost. I did replace the window motor but it still didnt work. i recommend the switch first then if that doesnt fix it then invest in teh window motor. save urself some money.
How do you lower tailgate window when motor fails on a 1987 ford bronco?
As far as I know there is no way to get the window down other than removing the motor itself. The motor is what holds the window up when closed. Make sure its the motor that has failed. There is also a switch located on the drivers side latch inside the gate that is designed to not allow the window to open when the gate is down. If that switch fails it the window motor will not function at all. I used a wire jumper to bypass the switch and solved my problem.

2004 jeep grand Cherokee pass rear door window goes down but not up?
If the window won't go up from only one switch it is most likely that switch. If it won't go up from the driver controls or the control on that window's door, then you probably have a problem with the window motor.
Why would the drivers master window control switch and the window switch behind the drivers side not work on a 1990 Toyota Camry?
The drivers window switch on the master switch energizes a solenoid for the express down feature of the drivers window. The solenoid deenergizes when the window bottoms out causing the thermal overload in the window motor to open. A spring in the solenoid is supposed to break the open circuit and provide power to the close circuit when deenergized. Sometimes the spring gets weak or the solenoid plunger is sticky preventing powering the close circuit. Removing the door panel and diaassembling the master switch is not a DIY. I have had success banging on the arm rest adjacent to the master switch to get the spring to make the close circuit. My guess is the rear window switch gets its power from the same movable contact as the drivers window switch.
