Windows motors are designed to move in both directions and if you operate the motor in both directions and hear the noise inside the door like a grinding noise, then you have a bad window regulator. It is possible that the cable broke inside the regulator or the rollers have broke. If you would like to have this taken care of, a certified technician from YourMechanic can come to your home or office to replace your window regulator for you.
