driver side window Sign In

I have a 1999 toyota corrola. The driver side window has intermittent problems closing from time to time. If I turn the motor off for a minute and start it up again, the window will close partially or all the way. If partially, I repeat the process until it closes all the way. Any suggestions?

Turning the motor of and on has no effect on the windows. It's sounds like it have a weak window motor.

Kinda sounds more like it isn't smooth in it's track OR the fuzz on the rubber tracking or sill seal has worn off making it like wiper blades run dry sorta thing.

Restarting engine is probably just giving a good jolt of the alternator and raised voltage. This could still be off track, a bad motor or regulator which come as a unit many times. Silicone spray - not gooey stuff may help and getting inside door would help a lot and lube things up inside. If NG it probably needs a new motor if others all work fine,
