You might have to regrease the window track. Mine does the same thing sometimes, but more at halfway. I believe you can regrease the track with white lithium grease. Correct me if im wrong. Hope that helps.

broken windows regulator?

my rear power window is broken for a long time. right now i have the window duct tape cuz i don't feel like spending $100 fixing the window. since my windows are tinted, it's not too noticible from outside. my area is pretty safe... so works for now (yea yea it's ghetto i know... )

does it so it when you do one window at at time o when you try to do all of them? because my sunroof does this if i try to close it at the same time as my windows, i think it just stop for safty and so the circuit wont overload or something.

this happens to me too. with about an inch left i hear "click" and it stops. 5 seconds later it will work again. does yours go up by itself, or do you have to wait and still hold the button? i gotta check out this heat thing cause it only happens sometimes so maybe that's it. weird.

edit: it's just the driver's side.

happens to me too! What is going on? I don't think there is a definite click but I'll listen harder next time. I think it is only my drivers side front window that does it.

do you have anything lodged into the window channel? i have weatherflectors that do not sit correctly. otherwise, time to grease.

No you guys are right it's overloading it. If I have my radio and ac on and try and roll up all the window and the sunroof at same time click for about 3 seconds.

Thw sunroof & power windows are connected to a circuit breaker that trips when it gets too hot. After 3 - 5 seconds, it cools down enough to let you resume the motor function.

To verify that your circuit breaker has tripped, try running another window as soon as your window pause ... if nothing, then the circuit breaker has tripped.

I rarely run more than 2 windows at a time (and definitely not with the sunroof), so mine rarely trips. Be patient, yours won't either. Why strain your poor circuit breaker?
