Hi guys

My passanger window is sticking. It only happens when its opened more than the normal opening of the door.

I had to pinch the top of it and pull it up this afternoon as it was going no where on its own. I have had the electrics replaced in the door as the window didnt work at all before hand. Any simple fixes?

Same thing exactly, 3 probables. One is the rubber drying out and gripping the window on the way up. Two corroded terminals on connectors not letting enough juice through. Three it's something else!
I just make sure the window doesn't go below door opening height and all is ok, if it does then I do the same as you and reach across and pull the glass and up she comes so know it isn't encoder or anything more serious (I hope). Now you've mentioned it though I'll pull the door card off tomorrow and report back.

My rubbers have perished and this causes the glass to get 'stuck' between the aluminium channel and the rubber which slows the window down. Anyone know where to get new rubbers from? There are 2 channels per side, so 4 in all, I'm guessing at no more than 2m of channel are required.
