"Sticking" Windows


Usually when a power window goes up and/or down, BUT sticks in between, the cause will be found to be that one or more of the window guide "channels" has become loose [one or more of the securing nuts has loosened], allowing the channel to shift position as the window moves.
The "fix" is to remove the door cover panel in order to access the window mechanism inside the door. Then manually try to move the guide channels. The channels that are tight [immovable] are OK.

The loose channel will need to be held in proper alignment while the securing nut[s] is tightened.

Why is my driver's side window getting stuck halfway down in my 1999 Chevy Suburban?

There are two possible conditions this question is describing. The first is that the window is seized and inoperable at the middle down position. The second is the window will go no further than middle. In the first it is a sign of a failed motor or regulator. In the second it is possibly an obstruction of the motor arms or window guides. Disassembly of the door panel to access and diagnose will be required.
