    I am hoping someone has some experience with taco doors here. I replaced my driver side mirror last night, everything worked right, but I forgot to check the window function and sure enough today it is down and it will start to move up (so the motor and connection is good) it gets about 1/3 of the way up and decides to go back down. I am at work right now, so I can't take it apart again till later today but would love a couple tips on what to look for that might be causing this. I am supposed to leave for a trip tomorrow and would love to be able to roll up my driver window...

    I fixed it - I went to check on if the reset process would remedy the situation and noticed that when the window was going up it was being interfered with by a piece of the window track right behind the mirror - the part in the corner. Anyways it was as if the window was trying to go on the wrong side of one of the track pieces. I just pulled the piece over to the other side so the window stayed on track and now it works. Hard to explain but I could take a photo if someone wants to see. The reset process was not necessary in this case. Crisis averted...
