I'm the one that tried Glenn's "trick" on my Intrepid. I didn't see my overhead/reading/dome light dim on a working window, either. So, I went for sound. When trying to raise an already closed window, I could hear a "click" sound in the door I was trying. There was a "click" sound from the door with the window that didn't work, so I figured it was stuck, which it was. See if you can hear something, trying all windows, too.
