Default Window Problem

The passenger side window doesn't roll down about 80% of the time. I would think switch but I can hear it click and it seems to go up 100% of the time. So I am sure it is not a switch. The window seems to struggle with going up and down. I would figure a motor but seems to work 20% when going down and always goes up. I am wondering if there is any friction issues I need to check?

If your guessing it may be a friction/weather strip issue, try the window with the door open---- to rule out that.

Check also for proper voltage at the motor, might just be time for a motor.
