Default Driver Window wont go up!!!!!!!!

I have a 98 vette and I rolled my drivers window down today and it would not go back up. It goes up about an inch and it will not go any further. Could this be a possible window regulator problem or is it something i could fix. I could the motor working and it moves the window about an inch up. Your help will be greatly appreciated..

I just went through a passenger window issue. It sounds like the regulator but your best bet is to pop the door panel, pull the rubber cover, and take a look. Instructions to pull the panel are here and here

Retail price could be as high as $600, but you, with the advice of other members, could likely fix it for about $75??

Be careful window does not slam down and chop off your arm or hand.

(Typical of many power window units, GM, Ford, etc.)
