power window problem my drivers side window will roll all the way down, but when i try to roll it back up it will only go halfway and stop like it ran out of power. i have to wait like 2 minutes and push the putton again, and again till it finally goes all the way up. i changed the relays and checked the switches, is there another thing im not checking or has the motor or wiring gone bad?

Go to Autozone...they sell a SIEMENS motor for the f-body application that is the EXACT same motor as the GM unit(same mounting and same electrical connector). If you go to your local dealer and buy their GM one the only difference between the two is a whole lotta money! Keep you receipt for the Autozone motor because it has a lifetime warranty. The motors are actually pretty easy install just take your time. Here are the instructions:

Time to R&R that motor it is doing that because it has an internal circuit breaker & it is being tripped.
Lube up the regulator & the guides in there while you got it apart.
