There many things that can cause an electric window to not operate properly. Some mechanical but usually electrical. It would help to know the make model and year of the car. Is it just one window, does it try to go up, does it make a sound but does not go up?

Generally, if an electric window is plugged in and is not operating, but the other windows are all operating properly, the window in question will need to have either a regulator or a motor replaced in the door, or both! It is also possible that the switch itself has gone bad, but if this is the case it is likely that more than one window is inoperable. It is more cost effective to replace these parts than attempt any sort of repair, and in most cases cannot even be repaired. Good Luck!
