I have a 1999 Chevy Venture 90,000 miles 3.4L engine the drivers and passengers side power windows have been moving slow for a couple of months. Just this past week the passengers side has been really slow up and down. Now the passengers side window went down but would not go back up. I checked both switches with a test lights and they both work. I replaced the window motor and it still doesn't work. Do you know what could be wrong with it? Thanks.

the window regulators are faulty , cable operated and they bind, if you pull the door panel again you may see a broken or bound cable on both

My window was slow (well still is slow) to go up or down. I have to move it with hand in order to continue. The arm that holds the glass is probably worn out. Then it got completely stuck open - the switch on door went.
This is apparently very common item to break. It costed me 80$ on ebay or 160$ at the dealer.
They are easy to change.

I hope your window works soon
