Default Front drivers side window closes intermittently

Once you cycle the ignition on and off all is OK again...any ideas guys'? My wife presses the switch to raise the window and it stops anywhere going up and then stops. This only happens when raising the window.

Cheers,

Ben

this is the window motor binding you will need to replace regulator assembly.

Maybe regulator, but another possibility, happened to me on my 94. Two wires in the harness that comes into the driver's side door had been damaged. The symptom started as passengers window would not go up, but would come down, then got worse, wouldn't come down sometimes. My wife's friend discovered that if one person held the driver's door open appx half-way, the up button on the passenger's side would work, and if you held the driver's door 3/4 of the way open, the passenger's down button would work. I razor-bladed open the rubber shrouding, found the wires (one had broken all the way through), repaired them, wiretied the shrouding back together, and good as gold, except for looking a little messy. Just a thought from my own experiences
