power window problem

[Michigan Skip]

I replaced the power window motor on the driver's side and it works but sometimes if I leave it down it won't go up. I can here the motor click like it wants to go but it won't. I have to shut the door while trying to close it. It's like it's bottomed out and needs to be jarred to start it. Otherwise I can roll it up and down all the way no problem. I wonder if it is going too far down and it's being jarred down while driving and binding?? How does it know when to stop? Is there a way to get it to stop a little sooner when I run it down?
TIA

I had the same problem, the mounting bolts were loose. Well one was missing, one was loose and the 3rd when I touched it, it fell out. I'd try taking it apart and see if thats it. Tighten them up again.

My passenger window randomly stops working. If I let it sit for a few minutes it continues working again...its really slowwwww too....any suggestions...I hate window motors in the F-Bods

That's how mine acted before I replced the motor. Shoebox has an Excellent write up on how to swap out the motor.Mine works okay it just doesn't want to go up after it's been down all the way for a while.???

I have had at least 4 PW motors in my 1995 camaro. Just recently the passenger started slowing down again. I bought a rebuilt from o'reillys and removed my old one and put the new one in and I guess what still slow as ever.
The old one had as much torque if not more than the new one which means there must be issues with the window tracks and mechanics.
I sprayed some lithium grease on the tracks and rubbed it in good and now the windows works much better.
It still seems as if thought the window is much to heavy for the motor cause ive seen brand new camaros whose windows go up with very little oomph.
Ive began to wonder if the recoil spring that assists the window in going up starts to get weak due to wear and tear.
I am convinced that most peoples problems are not the motors but the tracks, ive seen my shut down, go slow and everything else.

Manual roll-up windows for all!!
