Default Power Window Needs Help?

Drivers side window needs assistance to go up and down, does this suggest I need to replace the motor? Or is the fix I have seen elsewhere, something about bushings the way to go?

Could be a few things. You will probably have to pull the door panel off and observe it going up and down to find out what is dragging. It could be the motor, rollers, track, etc.

I just wanted to share that I have a convertible with power windows and had trouble with mine. Found out that just holding down the window switch for 10 seconds is a kind of "reset" and now it works fine. Sure was a wonderful relief to NOT mess with the motor.
