Emuburger

My 2001 LS430 driver window started to get stuck in the down position from time to time.  I would try it the next day and it would work.  I thought it might be a bad switch so I replaced the switch with another used one that I bought but that also did not work.   The used switch was $60 online.  Here is a video on how to remove the switch:

I went to my local dealer. The service adviser reported that  the problem was probably a bad window regulator or motor.  I replace both the regulator and motor and now the window works just fine.  I bought new parts online for about 200-300 dollars and did the work my self. Here is a video on removing the door panel which is the first step:

Finally, here is my video on replacing the regulator and motor:

I hope this helps someone.

I went to my local dealer and asked about the computer module discussed above.  The service adviser reported that he had never seen a bad computer module in 22 years of working there and that the problem was probably a bad window regulator or motor.  I replace both the regulator and motor and now the window works just fine.  Here is a video on removing the door panel which is the first step:

I had a tilt motor problem on a 2001 Lexus LS430 that I fixed by putting in a new tilt motor.  Here is the video:

I had the same problem with my tilt motor not working.  I replaced it using the above pictures.  If you would like to see a video of the whole process, here it is:
