Default 94 accord trouble

What's up, recently purchased a 94 Accord EX 5-speed and have a couple of problems with it. First, the brake lamp light is on at all times, even though all the brake lights work fine. Also, the rear left window wasn't working. Upon further inspection, we found it to be not plugged in, so we plugged it in. The window goes down and we think the problem is solved, until we try to roll it back up. About 3/4 of the way up, it gets stuck and will not move up or down. Drove around with it like that for a few days, until miraculously one day, I push the button, and it rolls up. All is well until it accidently gets rolled down again, and the same scenario recurs, any ideas?

if the brake lamp light is on.....you got a lamp out..also your window motor in the back is bad it will need to be replaced. you can get the motor at an auto parts store for about 120 bucks, and it will probably take you about 2 hours to install. or the dealership or other shop would be happy to fix it for about 4-5 hundred dollars. feel free to ask any other questions that you may have.

when you say the brake lamp lite , do you mean the one where the open door lites are on , or the one that is on when the e-brake is on........If it is the 1 for the e-brake . chk the fluid in the reservoir if ok, replace the master cylinder cap

As for the window, you might have a dirty switch,, if window goes up again, remove the fuse for that particular window so it won't go down again accidantaly .... at least till you decide to fix it properly..

i mean the light on the instrument pannel that has says "brake lamp" and is on the back of the little illistrated car, and alerts you when one of your brake lights is out. the thing is all the brake lights are fine. And how would you fox a "dirty switch"?
