adjust door glass on X90
#2

I replaced the Suzuki window motor with a Toyota one but it was barely better. It seems the glass jams into the channels. I need to grab the top edge and pull it up. Down usually (but not always) works. I have tried a few times to adjust it but am working blind. Is there an order to making the adjustments? I make one adjustment and it seems to change the one I did prior. Lubing the rubber( soap or silicone) helps a bit for the couple of minutes the rubber is wet then jams again.
The X90 uses a scissor type regulator, not the cable type found on a Sidekick.
well all old cars do this.
it's friction.
the glass fits in guides.  so we pull the door card  off and motors , unlinked, and move the glass by hand if you can't , neither can the motor.
also the motor needs large wire gauge so it can pull more current.
the rubbers on the top door end get old and hard and stiff and only New ones, cure that (rare to find)

the guides are flocked they have this fur locking guide cushions inside so when you slam a door the tempered glass does not shatter.
this fur lining gets old and can even pack-up  in dirt from 24 years of rain +dirt /mud ,etc.
if you pull the cards and do the tests needed to find  true cause is at hand even 2 causes.

pure mechanics issue of by hand fails. (motor  unlinked)
