So over this past weekend, after going out for a drive and coming back home my driver side window made a crunching type noise going up. After taking the door panel off, i realized that the cable that raises and lowers the window is starting to fray and is jamming the power window motor. Has anybody had any luck fixing this aside from replacing the entire motor/regulator assembly? I really dont want to spend 100 bucks just because a cable is fraying.

You should be able to advance the motor out by hand, and switch out the cables. (Note: I haven't done this myself). But once you get it out, you should also be able to swap cables with one from a junk yard.
