Update: I dont think its the switch that failing. You can activate the window roll down by pressing the unlock button and holding it on the remote and all windows will roll down. My driver side is not rolling down. I dont know much about about how the motor and regulator should operate, so any help here would be appreciated. Does this sound like the regulator? If the regulator is just mechanical, then wouldnt it be the motor thats failing. If there was a problem with the regulator and the motor is still good, would there be movement or at least if I go in and try to push the window down, shouldnt it move if the regulator is just stuck?

I know I had problems with a window guide and though I fixed it in the past, when the window goes up, it would go up slower then the other windows. So maybe that put strain of the motor and it finally went. I do hear the clicking when pressing the window button up, but not down. The clicking is just a relay im assuming in the motor assembly, so thats not a sign to indicate the motor is good and the fact that the remote window rolldown feature is still not bringing the window down, rules out the switch being bad.
