Why do my windows only go down halfway?
So why then do those rear windows only go down part way in most cars? Well, it’s actually due to the design of the rear doors. Simply put, there’s no place for the glass to go when the window rolls down. …which, in turn, generally means a window can only go down so far as the tallest point of the bottom of the door.
What SUVS have a back window that rolls down?
A few other cars do have this feature. The old Jeep Grand Wagoneer has a roll-down back window. The Toyota Tundra and Sequoia have it, too. And I was recently in traffic next to a Ford Explorer Sport Trac, which also lets you drop the back window for more airflow.

When the power window switch sees the 5 volts return on the limit switch signal wire, the power window switch knows the window is fully closed and stops power window motor operation.

Other common causes of power window failure include faulty switches, damaged window tracks, old or worn pulleys and cable lines, broken cables, snow and ice exposure, or overheated window motors. These causes can either be permanent or temporary.
What to do when power window goes all the way up?
After performing the limit switch reset procedure, if the window still goes all the way up and then comes back down several inches when using the “auto” feature of the power window switch, check the voltage on the limit switch circuit to determine if the limit switch inside the power window motor is defective.
How does a power window work in a car?
Every power window requires a window motor to supply the electrical energy. There is a gear at the end of the power window motor which connects with the window regulator. When you press the up or down button on your door, it activates the window motor which then allows the window regulator to move the window.
