1993 grand cherokee
 
My drivers side window won't open. I guess it could be a fuse, motor or
switch. Unfortunately I've lost the manual for it. Here's my
questions.
1: Would it be the fuse box beside the glove box, or the one under the
hood.
2: Does one fuse operate all 4 windows, or one fuse for each window.
3: What I want to do, if it is the motor, is replace it with one of the
back window motors. Are all 4 universal?
4: Are these door panels hard to get off, or relatively easy.
5: Is there a web site I can go to to get the fuse box diagram?

The power windows are powered with a single, 30-amp circuit breaker
(#26) in the fuse panel. That's located on the right side behind the
passenger door. That's not the relay group under the glove box.

If one window works, you can assume there is nothing wrong with the
circuit breaker. Can't help you with the motors. Salvage yard?

I had the same problem with my 93,,, twice. Except mine was stuck in the
down position. (In the rain of course)

Inside the passenger door on the side of the instrument panel. ---- says #
26

One to rule them all.

I think you'll find they differ mostly. You could try it with the left back
seat motor (regulator).

> 4: Are these door panels hard to get off, or relatively easy.


Relatively easy. Three screws, inside opposite the rear view mirror, inside
the door handle behind a plastic plug and one inside the door pull.
Everything else pops out. Start at the bottom and then slide the panel up to
disengage from the window channel.

> 5: Is there a web site I can go to to get the fuse box diagram?


I'm sure there is from Doug's site, if you need, but probably not for this
particular problem.

Both times, I took my door panel off, slid the weather welt off the top of
the opening then took the window out (two nuts on the scissor assembly,
loosen only). Was able to take the scissor track out with removing 4 nuts.
Contract it and slide it out through the rear panel opening.
I hooked it back up to the switch and thumped on the motor. Worked for three
more years.
Yes, I understand this is not the most professional fix, but it worked very
well. I think possibly too that the down stop on the scissor assembly
------s out a bit and lets the track 'catch' at the bottom. Easy to bend it
back into play though.
One final, serious caution. When you have the scissors/regulator assembly
out, don't release the spring tension. The arm will slam back and break your
thumb. (painful experience story)

What did your problem end up being? Maybe mine is the same.
