    My driver's side power window seems to intermittantly refuse to work.

    It usually happens after the car has been started. I just press the controls about a dozen times and it starts to work.

    So far once it starts working, it seems to work perfectly up & down, until the next time i start the car, which could be as little as 5 mins.

    At first we thought it was completely dead, So we unscrewed the panel and checked that the wires were in. Some time later it started working while I was trying to show someone that it was busted.

    Could also be dirty contacts in the switch. Fixing the little black box is pretty easy. You'll see very quickly where the problem solder joint is :p
