Default driverside window drops down?

Every time I open my door my driver side window will drop down two inches and stop and it doesn't go back up. passenger side window will work just fine drops down a cm and goes back up a cm. Any ideas where i can start looking to find my problem?

Mine was doing this, and cleaning the brushes fixes it temporarily. I've had a brush cleaning last me over a year, but eventually, these motors go out. It's a common problem, and they aren't cheap. I'm about to order a new driver side one in the next few days.

Search around and you can find out how to clean the motors, and hopefully that'll get you by for a year or more!
