Default Need help, window motor.

Recently my left rear window doesnt work. I am thinking that the motor is shot but I am not exactly sure. When I pused the button for the window to go down nothing happens. Not even any noise form the motor. I was also thinking that it could have been a fuse or something.. Need help does anyone have any suggestions.

On another note I have some red neon lights that I looking to install under the seats of my car. I bought them a long time ago when I didnt own an Audi but i figured they might look good to match the red color dash lights. Does anyone have a suggestions on where to wire them to. I was hoping somewhere along the line of when the head lights come on they come on as well. Being a newb at this I have no idea where I could do attach the wires so that could happen. Thank you all.

check the fuse before you buy a motor. i think the window motors are like $500 dollars. it could also be the window regulator which i had to replace on all my windows....

or it could be you have the rear windows locked.

Wouldn't be a fuse or none of the windows would work. Shouldn't be a regulator or you could hear the motor go, but nothing would happen.
Pop off the door panel and take a looksy is my first suggestion.
