Power windows binding

Hi, I just wanted to ask what is the best thing to do to free up my power windows. Both sides are increasingly harder to go up and down. You can tell the motor is struggling to get the windows up and down. I think they are binding at the rubber gasket at the bottom of the window. I think in the past somebody said to spray clean silicone on them. Is that the best thing to do? thanks.

LOL I never knew to look down. I just sprayed silicone on the window mouldings and that seem to do the trick. Thanks everybody for your replies!

Re: Power windows binding

I also like using Rainx on both sides of the window, especially on the drivers side, this prevents less resistance.

I just noticed silmilar threads at the bottom a few weeks ago!
