1. Bad window switch: One likely scenario is that the window switch on the driver’s side door is faulty. This can prevent the window from rolling up.
2. Bad wiring: Another possibility is that there is a problem with the wiring in the driver’s door.
3. Dirty contacts: In some cases, the issue may be as simple as dirty contacts on the switch assembly. Cleaning the contacts may solve the problem.
It’s important to note that these are just possible causes based on the information provided. To accurately diagnose and fix the issue, it is recommended to consult a professional mechanic or bring your vehicle to a Dodge service center.

Why won t my power windows roll down?

Here’s what to look for. When you’re cranking the window handle and the window doesn’t roll up or down, either the crank gears are worn out or the regulator is off its track. Crank gears are sometimes made of plastic that can wear down from repeated use. Or, perhaps, the regulator arm is not aligned in its lower track.

Why are my electric windows not working?

Visually inspect cables or window guides for broken or misaligned pieces.

If the cables are intact and the guides are aligned, the window motor may have stripped gears.
