Well, I did remove the door panel, and check the switch. This window can be controlled from two switches(one from passager seat and one from driver seat), and both switches cannot close this window but just open it. I am pretty sure that the problem are not from the switches, they won't break at the same time.
I checked the voltage across the motor poles when I was turning the switch on, they are 12VDC when opening and less than 12VDC when closing.
And also, the motor makes a click noise when I open the window, and makes no noise when I close the window.
Tomorrow, I may try to find any blockage on the window rack and pulling cable, or I will dismantle the motor and gear, see whether the motor will move without the gear and pulling cable.
try to do like this:connect power directly from battery to motor,check the window.then change positive to negative,check window again.sometimes rack rust,but very rary.
kagapi said right, it sounds like the main switch(driver side) malfunction, but you can follow his procedure to check the motor. For Toyota, the motor isn't operate directly to switch, it is controlled by main switch and each door's switch together. Usually the main switch is the problem(due to poor contact inside).
Vow..... Bravo..... You guys are ingenious and knowledgeable, I found the back door switch's problem, one of the ground wire was not grounded(probably I have wire problem now), that's why this switch could just open the window, but not close it. I soldered this gound wire to another ground wire.
Now, it is the turn for the front door main switch, I opened the main switch, and clean it. I found the switch looks OK, at least the contact is OK within the switches (shows no resistance in the multimeter), but I worry about poor contacts between the electric plug and the main switch.
Rigth now, my main switch has problems on the back winodw and locking the doors.
Any suggestion for my front foor main switch? ThanQ
