Picked up son from school. It was 95 degrees and the car was parked outside (~140+ inside), so I had to drive with the windows down because the A/C was doing nothing. Picked up son, then a rear window wouldn’t go up and lock wasn’t working. My entire door regulator has been marginal for 5+ years, but it’s not worth fixing. I had never tried this before, but I said “Just open and close it real hard.”
Fixed. Now I get to bask in that temporary moment where my son thinks I’m a magician.

Hitting a malfunctioning machine is always step 1 for me.

Percussive maintenance is a thing.

These kids today and all their reliable electronics. They don’t even know about hitting TVs to make them work, let alone cars.
