Default Window is stuck WTF??

Ok I am pretty sure my window motor on my 01 SS is fine. It has stuck like this temporarily before but now it will not roll down. When I hit the button it will move up about a half inch and down a half inch....the motor has plenty of power I just cant figure out what is making it hang up. If anyone else has had any experience with something like this your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I had that exact same problem on my TA and it ended up being my window motor
with my it sounded like the motor had juice but wouldn't move
I took off the panel and replaced the motor my self and it works like a charm now
Bought the motor for 40 bucks
Could be ur problem to
I though it wasn't my motor either but that ended up being the problem
But what u described is exactly what happened to mine
It moves down an inch stop and rolls up fine

Thanks WS Quick I will just have to go get myself another motor for it. Did it in my 95 Z also a few years back I just figured it was hanging on something or off track and I couldn't tell.
