window issue :/

I believe my window may just need to be adjusted. There is a gnarly gap when I close my door and im afraid I might break it. And instead of going to an auto glass shop and paying 200 for a simple fix, I was wondering if anyone could help me out in the citrus heights area, I can offer beer/cash or both. Thanks for reading.

im guessing that one of the nuts on the window came loose and it shifted. If thats the case, it should be a pretty simple fix. Just have to pull the door card off and pull the plastic off to get to the inside of the door.

Did it happen all of the sudden?
Does the window still roll up/down?
Any funny noise?

No weird noises. It stuttered when I rolled it up last night. And now it won't roll up or down.

And I just don't have the tools or knowledge to fix it myself

One side probably popped off the rail, got stuck, motor fried itself trying to power it up.
If you dont have it resolved by tomorrow pm me.

I've also seen the motors pop bolts and spin in the door - which pulls the harness out of the switch. Pop the panel, check your bolts, and check your window switch connection, and the motor connection to the chassis harness.

Did the exact same thing to the window.

No dice, took off my door panel, found a couple loose bolts but couldn't get into the door to put them where they belong. But I know I need a new motor for it, I could pick it up tomorrow if its still cool
