Default Power windows

My wife found a 2003 with power windows. The right window only lowers half way. It closes completely and apparently causes no problems with anything else.

Question - How big a deal is it to fix this problem? I have not had an opportunity to see the vehicle yet.

Thanks

Remove interior panel and watch it. Sometimes one cable gets"misplaced" and hooks itself around something.

Thanks for the quick reply. Sometimes the difference between looking like an idiot and an expert is knowing where to look. Now I have a better idea on how to negotiate.

Mine are getting slower and slower to go up and down. I just haven't pulled the door panel to lubricate everything. One day I'll get around to it.
