I had this exact problem with my Toyota Avalon. The right front door window wouldn't go down when I tried to activate it from the driver's side control. It was stuck. I did what Scotty advised and it worked! Thank you Scotty!
*My 2013 Ford Edge Limited AWD only had an automatic window for the driver's side. The other windows were regular power windows. So I removed the master switch assembly on the driver's door and replaced it with one from a 2013 Lincoln MKX, replaced the regular switch on the passenger side with an automatic switch, changed out the passenger window motor, purchased the proper wiring harnesses, ran a single additional wire from the driver's door to the passenger door for master control of the automatic passenger window, and connected all the proper wiring in both doors. Now I have automatic windows on the driver's side and the passenger side. It was fun.*
Another good use for silicon spray is for the door seals. Here in Missouri during winter, moisture will freeze the door shut. Keeping the rubber sprayed will keep that from happening.

Thank you Mr. Kilmer for this and all the other videos you make! I had an 2002 infiniti g35 that power window went out 2 mos. after the warranty expired. $500 bill at the dealer, and when I asked how many of these get replaced to the mechanic he said "a lot". I asked if there was anything that could be done to prevent, he said "no". Life lesson learned years pre youtube explosion. You would want a world filled with honest repair men and women, but at least with this video channel we get a chance to learn from some of the very best!
Scotty, your videos are consistently easy to watch, informative and even entertaining. The vast majority of people making videos on youtube have no idea how to accomplish this. You should make a 3 minute video on....how to make a video.

I tried this on my 94' Celica which has power windows and it really works! Great information! Thank you Scotty!
The usual mixture of good advice, sprinkled in with some myths. Unless it's a really old vehicle, there are several protections against burning up the motor by holding down the switch, Usually one or both are used. When the window hits the stops at the bottom, or seats into the frame (or stops at the top for a frameless window), the added current trips a self resetting fuse. Some systems will monitor the motor RPM and if it drops to zero, will break the circuit. The obvious tell that this is how many work is when you have a binding window and it goes up a little way and stops and the switch has to be repeatedly pressed and released to fully close the window. (I'm sure you've seen this) I can't imagine how many motors would be damaged if these protections weren't commonplace. With all that said, fuses can fail too and sh*t happens, so I'll grant you that it makes no sense to hold these buttons down once their task is complete.
I've been maintaining and repairing my cars etc for 57 years. One of my older cars (one of many I have) is a 1990 TWR Jaguar XJS 3.6 manual in mint condition with only 41k miles on the clock. I've owned this one for 8 years and the passenger side window has always been stuck closed. I could tell it was getting power as there was a small dip in the brightness of lights when the switch was pressed but it would never move. Then I watched this and went straight out to try the door-slam trick. I opened the door. pressed the switch and firmly closed the door. Nothing. I did it again. Nothing. I did it again and down came the window!! Thanks a whole lot, Scotty. Just shows your're never to old to learn!! If I ever meet you I will buy you a beer or ten!!
I love how you create such excitement about what you talk ! it is uplifting !!
This really worked. I had a really slow driver side window. Gave it a decent sized spray and now it works great. I'd been putting it off for a couple years. Scotty's video made me finally do it.

love the videos Scotty. I fixed my power windows with LPS 1 spray. I think my better half spilled a coffee in the master window control last year. LPS 1 is a greaseless lubricant, repels water, cleans and restores electrical boards. Just take the controller apart as much as your comfortable and spray away inside it. I then blow it out with air very well. I have fixed 2 very expensive electronic parts with it. 2 for 2. Use at your own risk though, I am no expert, but it worked great for me. This would be a good product to feature!

Here's one more: 2 of the windows in my 2007 Nissan Murano stopped working within a few weeks of each other when the weather was hot. My air conditioner was also broken. I suspect snow fell in the window switch when I rolled the window down that winter. After thinking about the possible causes for weeks (and looking at the prices for replacement assemblies online), I took the switches out, took them apart, and looked at the contacts. They had black deposits on them from years of overuse, so I sprayed some De-oxit contact cleaner on it and rubbed the black stuff off. Worked like a charm.
Scotty you are a great man . You have saved our lives. God bless you 🙏 and your family.

Some years back I had a power window motor lacking lubrication stop working.Simply taking the motor apart (not easy as the shaft was stuck in place) and greasing the motor shaft where the bushing slides on was all it needed to work as good as new. Sometimes the factory does not use as much grease as needed (maybe none) and parts can stick over time.

Many thanks, slamming the door with the button depressed worked a treat. Then I used the Silicone spray all around and enev sprayed in the window gaps before trying to raise the window. Gave it a few more squirts and the window works as new. Thanks again. With the hot weather here in Australia, they tend to stick.

Thanks Scotty, I now know what to look for because I have this problem with my Chevy 2006 Silverado 1500. My lights turn dim when I roll down my windows and there's a weird whistling sound at the front end somewhere's. I can fix those things you mentioned and being aware of my vehicle will encourage me to learn proper maintenance.
When I bought a used 2001 CRV a few months ago I noticed the windows sounded like they were struggling. Found an old video of yours taking about this silicone spray and I sprayed that in the tracks. After it soaked the whole track, the windows are much, much better. They run faster and with less noise. Good you remade the video for newer viewers to find
