1> Spray Silicone on the Rubber Molding/Seal. Spray in the tracks also for
smoother working windows.
2> Check for missing/broken shoe return springs and/or holddowns. Also, lube
the raised metal "bumps" on the backing plates that the shoes ride on. These
can help get the shoe caught, producing a wedged/jammed shoe.

Let us know what it is, Ray
