Power Window Issue...Help!
Long time reader....first time thread starter...
Situation is this: after getting poured on for the past few days, and it not raining anymore, I started up my 04 C5 and began letting her warm up. There is a good deal of fog/condensation on the outside of the windows, so naturally I decide to roll them down to clear it off. Driver side comes up as advertised, then I look over and to my horror the passenger side is only about a third of the way up
. Now, it just clicks a little when I attempt to let it come back up.
It could be bad on me, but I had it stick a few months back, albeit the windows were already up, but a day later when I was taking it to a non-local dealer for some minor other stuff, it worked perfectly. I was thinking that pulling the fuze would possibly reset the connection (no idea which one it would be), and that the motor burning out wouldn't be a probable case since it's happened before, but I'm at a loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Since it's clicking, you're getting power so that's good sign.
Is it not moving at all or just reeeeeeally slowly?
My windows have gotten slower at going up, but my car is 2 years old now. I would think that's natural.
If yours is that bad ... I hate to even suggest this ... but since it's covered under warranty ... maybe you should have the stealership (preferably one with a good rep) look at it?

Yeah, its not even moving at all 
...and the local dealer down here isn't exactly on the starting team when it comes to fixing cars, let alone my baby. I'm planning on calling GM and will keep you all posted. Thanks for the help....
