i dont know much about this, and i dont mean to sound like an *** especially it being your first post, but use the search button. it is there for this very reason. in the search field type window ... then select accord from the drop down menu, and then choose archived content ... then press search. i found 78 results, and im sure your answer lies within. good luck, and if you cant find anything there come back and re-post! and welcome to H-T!

What you need to do is describe it a bit better.

1. Do you hear the motor trying to raise the window?
2. How do you know the motor is good?

maybe the handle from the motor that is pulling up the window is not secure.

i know the motor works cause i jumped power str8 to the motor and it would roll up and down
its like it just loses power between the switch and the motor somewhere. the new switch works fine in my girlfriends accord. so i know its not the motor or the switch
i really dont understand it. i work at a body shop and its got us all stumped. 1 guy said that he thought he remembered the same thing happen 2 some1 else and he said he thought that they replaced the power lock control module inside the door and its worked fine ever since

Sounds like a short to me. Check your wires for breaks or cracks in the insulation and splice
