The driver side factory fog light goes out so I have to smack it to work. The same day my fog light finally wouldn't come back on the driver side window wouldn't roll all the way up. I have slammed my door a few times to release the bond between the window and ice so it does roll down. I figure I may have moved something out of wack by doing so?
The window track may be broken or you may have nocked it off track

Quite possibly yes...I would first check any relays and/or fuses just in case. A few dollars for a fuse or relay is much cheeper than say $100.00 and a few hours of labor.
You can purchase just the window motors from any major auto parts stores. You can also purchase the window motor with the regulator. The regulator is kind of like a rope and pulley system to lift the window up and down and the motor is attached to this assembly. It is a little more expensive but I would change both. I always change both just in case the regulator is bad and it isn't the motor. You will have to remove the plastic interior of the door in order to change either the motor or the motor/regulator assembly.
Any questions, feel free to ask!

jorgeva: on the driver's side to gain access, you must remove the air cleaner assembly. At that point, you can see the back of the light which has a plastic cap. Rotate this "counter clockwise" and you can pull it back from the back of the lamp housing. From there you will see how the bulb it self is plugged in, which is obvious. Unplug it. There is a "spring "like latch retainer to hold the bulb in place. Unlatch it, remove the bulb and install the new bulb.
CAUTION!!!!!!! DO NOT TOUCH THE GLASS AREA OF THE NEW BULB! Only handle the rear section. Reassemble in the reverse order.
The right side will require the removal of the windshield washer tank.
I trust this will have answered your question. If you would, let me or FIXYA know if I have solved your problem......

It is likely the window motor is wearing out and will need to be replaced. You can always try a different switch on those wires to rule out switch problem. Otherwise, the motor will have to be replaced.
