Default Power window stuck

I know it's not an electrical problem, because the drivers side window rolls up all the way, but the passenger side goes up half way, then stops. I am able to push down the on the window and it goes down, and pull up on it and it comes up. Plus it makes this weird clinking noise when I try to roll it up, any suggestions / diagnosis on how to fix.
Thanks

sounds like youi have a bad window regulator motor. im not sure but the clinking sound may be that the window it popped out of track or the regulator is bent. remove the doore panel to inspect. let me know how it goes

I agree. The regulator may be shot. But you could first try spraying some silicone lubricant into the rubber side channels to see whether the sides of the window glass are just binding in the channels.
