What causes an electric window to scratch when it is rolled down?

Most car windows are guided up and down by clips or strips along their sides inside the door. Those clips are usually lined with a plastic or rubber piece to protect the glass. Sometimes from aging, vibration, or occasionally improper speaker installation, that liner gets knocked off. Look carefully for something like that laying inside the bottom of the problem door or quarter panel. While you're in there, you might want to 'fish' out any loose nuts or retainer clips lying in the bottom because: 1 - you probably ought to re-install them, but 2 - normal condensation in the bottom of the door or panel can combine with those parts and start corrosion that could easily eat through any corrosion protection of the panels over time.

How do you repair an electric window that will not roll down in a '89 Dodge Caravan even though the motor is good?
I have repaired both electric windows in my 1988 caravan. There is a white plastic track that the motor pulls and pushed and this is what opens and closes the window. It is located inside the door behind the door panels. Usually the track breaks, with age and you need to replace them.

Why does the battery keep going out in your electric window?
I have never seen a car with a battery for the electric window. The electric windows use the main car battery. If your electric window does not function properly, there is some other reason for it's erratic behavior. ie: intermittent short, faulty switch (my guess), faulty window motor, etc, etc.
