Default Powered window stuck at times

Hello all,
2008 JK has electric powered windows.
The passenger one sometimes when is fully open, then pressing the button to lift it doesn't work unless I try 3-4 times or more.
It seems to be happening only when the window is fully open (all down).
Any similar experience or ideas?

Thank you!

This kinda sounds like more of a window regulator issue to me than an electrical thing. Maybe the regulator is on it's way out, and with the window fully retracted is just getting a little sticky at its full range That is just my guess. I would think if it was electrical related, it would occasionally happen at various states of being rolled down. On something that is 11 years old....I can fathom a regulator starting to act up.

Default Rear window

Rear window won't move up. Moves down only. Its just the left rear window. Switched out the motor with the front motor and same problem. Installed new rear power switch and same problem. When using a probe tester the connector would lite up in the in the up position and also the down position but motor will only turn one direction. . Any ideas?
