Why Is My Suzuki Alto Lapin’s Power Window Moving Slowly?

The power window in my Suzuki Alto Lapin moves very slowly compared to when it was new. Sometimes it struggles to go up o r down completely. What could be causing this, and how can I improve its performance? Is it due to a motor issue, lack of lubrication, o r something else?

A power window moving slowly could be caused by several issues:

Weak Window Motor: The power window motor might be beginning to fail o r losing its power, causing the window to move slower than usual.
Dirty o r Worn Window Regulator: The window regulator, which controls the movement of the window, might be clogged with dirt o r grime o r experiencing wear and tear, slowing down the window movement.
Lack of Lubrication: The tracks o r the moving parts inside the window mechanism may not be adequately lubricated, leading to friction that slows down the window.
Electrical Issues: Low voltage o r a weak battery can also cause the window motor to operate at reduced speed.
Solution:

Inspect and replace the window motor if it appears weak o r failing.
Clean and lubricate the window regulator and tracks to reduce friction.
Check for electrical issues, including battery voltage, and ensure that the power window system is receiving enough power.
If the issue persists, consider replacing the window regulator o r motor as needed.
