    Greetings. I lowered the (electric) windows yesterday in my '95 850T and
    when I went to raise them the driver's door window didn't move. While I
    pressed the switch (up) there was a rapid clicking which sounded like (I
    could be wrong) it was coming from the console. The clicking continued
    as long as I pushed the button. When I pressed it for (down), there was
    one click only, which sounded like it came from inside the door.

    I looked in the manual and saw the part about the emergency cut-out and
    to 'try again in 20 minutes'. Amazingly, after 20 minutes the window
    went up normally.

    Anybody care to venture a diagnosis? Is it the switch, the motor or just
    a fluke? At the moment I'm a bit hesitant about lowering that window
    again. I'm also preparing myself mentally for an expensive repair.
    :-(

    cheers,

    Henry
