Power Window Issues

I'm having issues with my power windows. The issue that I'm having is they randomly stop working. They will go slowly up or down for about 10 seconds then trip something. I've checked the relays for the one touch down and the acc relay that powers the windows. I've also checked all the switches and the all the grounds to the switches. One time all the windows will work correctly with the key turned to acc and then they won't after I start the truck. I've even swaped relays around to see if it's a relay issue. I'm not exactly sure where to go from here. If anyone has had this issue or knows what might be the issue, I could really use the help.

First try to roll down the window with the master switch (front driver door), then try the switch on that particular door you're having issues with. If the window rolls up/down fine using the switch on that door but it doesnt if you use the master switch, then your master switch is more then likely at fault. If vice-versa then that doors switch is bad.
Try this with different doors.

If you are having this issue with only one door, then more then likely the window motor for that particular door is failing.
Get a booster pack/jumper pack. take off the door panel from the door your having issues with. Unhook the plug that plugs into the window motor. Get two wires, strip the ends to expose the copper on each wire. the point is to directly send power to the motor to raise/lower the window glass.

Here is a video

If the motor has trouble rising/lowering the glass then your motor is bad.

IF you test the motor on the doors manually and ALL of them exhibit the SAME problem, more then likely something draining the power being directed to the window motors, then you really got to get down with a ohm meter and go through the door wiring seeing if there is a short somewhere.

Its also possible that all your window motors are going bad (this is highly unlikely) so try the above steps first.
