dead battery ???
check to see if the window switch of the driver's side is getting power, if you are getting power to the switch and the switch is sending power out to the motor but the motor is not responding the motor needs to be replaced
It won't have a relay. Usually it is the switch, or the fan motor that goes bad.
You need to open the door panel, unplug the motor from the connector, apply power and a ground wire to the contacts on the motor side of the connector. You make the motor go up or down by just switching the 2 wires back and forth between the 2 contacts inside the connector, If the motor runs, the switch is bad.
it sounds like your ignition switch, i ran into a similar problem, your power goes through your ignition switch for your blower motor.
It is probably a bad motor, or a loose ground going to the motor. And there is the possibility of a bad switch, if it only occurs at one speed.
turns running lights off and on. the lights around the top of vehicle usually, orange lights. Doug
the brake switch at the pedal is stuck or out of adjustment.
bad headlight switch
This condition could happen if there is a motor trying to start on the circuit. A water pump motor will do this if the pressure switch is not working properly. Switch is calling for motor to start. Motor starts and switch shuts the pump off right away. pressure instantaneously drops and pump tries to start again. This cycling will continue until the pump's overloads drop the pump off line.
Use a test light connected to the fan motor - if it lights fan motor is bad if it does not light could be fuse, relay, switch, or resistor
Failed limit switch, or bad wiring. The motor will keep running until the headlight finds "home" ... ergo a failed limit switch as mentioned above. The sensor at the "home" position (headlight off) has to be tripped by the headlight assembly before the motor will shut down. The motor has no idea where the headlight physically is ... it keeps running until the switch is engaged.
Failure to turn the starter motor. Flickering lights, especially when you touch the key. Intermittent power supply to the rest of the car.
I guess you'll have to take the door panel off and unplug the motor. Take your test light and clip the lead to ground and poke the sharp into one side of the connector that comes from the switch while you activate the switch while the key is on. If your test light lights up (try both sides of the connector) then your motor is probably bad.
What kind of noise: A motor hum? A high-pitched sound? Which lights: the kitchen lights? The ceiling fan light? Sounds like you have your lights on a dimmer and that will cause a high-pitch sound. The noise is motor hum and a "clinking noise" almost like the glass domes are loose (they aren't). The lights I was referring to are the ceiling fan lights. I am not using a dimmer switch. Also, it is a Hunter ceiling fan (I don't know the model. It was a mid-range fan as far as price: $109.00)
Try moving the tube in the fittings, if this doesnt work, then you probably need a new starter motor.
If you are talking about motor control then the answer is yes. There are two things to take into account though. One, is the motor thermally protected. This is for overload protection. On fractional HP motors it will indicate this on the nameplate. If the motor is not protected, then a fractional HP motor switch should be used. Incorporated into this switch is a heater element that the motor current flows through. If the motor current gets over the motor nameplate rating then the heater trips the switch and shuts the motor off. The other thing is that the switch has to be motor rated, currents and voltage matching the motor nameplate ratings. The specific switch has been designed to open motor currents under full motor loads. An ordinary house light switch is not motor load rated and should not be used for this purpose.
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.
