1999 ram 2500 Driver Side Power Window intermittent

[Huskiemuskie]

All of the driver side switches work e.g. locks, passenger, driver auto down/manual down. however when you select drivers side window up... it goes up about halfway and stops... you have to wait for a good amount of time approx. 15-30 mins it will go up some more then stop and you have to do that process until it all the way up.... any ideas?

Sounds like the switch is worn out. The contacts are likely cracked/broken. 

Try swapping passenger side switch over to driver side to berify that the driver switch is failed.

I have had good luck with a contact cleaner spray like Deoxit D5 not cheap but I refer to it as magic electrical spray

Check the wiring going through the door post/frame area by the door hinges.  I had one break the wire in there.  It would work if you wiggled it. I would think you could pop the switch out and check for power when its not working to verify weather its a switch or power issue.
