Danger, danger Will Robinson.  This was the first sypmptom on my (now her) '84
5kS recently.  Sometimes the window (drivers front) would go all the way down,
other times she'd have to hold the button to get it to go down.  One day the
window decided not to go back up.  Period.  Stayed down for a week or so
(during which it snowed five inches of course) 'till she finally called Peter
(AUDIONLY@aol.com) & he brought her a new auto-down relay.  $20 and a broom to
get the snow out of the car, & she was on her merry way...
