Take your panel off and get a battery charger and put the black clamp from charger onto ground. Then unplug the wire harness to the window motor. The two wires (one brown and one blue) one is for the window to go up...the other for down...so put the positive from the charger to one or the other. If it still does not work....then sometimes the motor stops at a bad spot on the motors armature...try to move it a little with a screwdriver, then try again. Email me the results of these tests at rivierarob2007@shaw.ca and I will try to help you further. Rob _________________________ Hi All; Im a Riviera freak lol I have owned 5 1968's, 1-'67, and 1-'69 as well as worked on others. My knowlege on Riv's is extensive, as I have completely dis-assemled and restored them. I also have original parts book for '63-76 and have thoroughly studied it over the last 30 years. I don't think you can stump me on any problem you might be having with your Rivy. Currently Own 1968 Riv GS 1967 Riv GS
