Question Window wont roll down (not motor)

Hey I have a 99 TA and the passenger window wont roll down unless the door is open. The motor isn't bad because when the door is open it works fine. I think its misaligned or something. Anyone know how to fix this or where i would take a problem like this to??? thanks a lot guys.

Well I say check the wiring between the door & the body inside the accordian.
They might be damaged?
Seen B-4 mostly on drivers door, but ???
Can you hear the motor or see it dim lights with the door closed w/you push the button?
Do you think it is binding or not running the motor?

Here's my theory: I think something is causing resistance (maybe something is wrong with the tracks, might just need grease) and that when the door is closed the additional resistance caused by the weather stripping causes to much strain on the motor.

just like what 99blackss said it might need grease. my windows too are slow as hell to go up and down. i went to autozone and bought some silicone spray and i still havent done it yet, but roll down your windows and spray all that stuff in there...
