Weak power windows on my BMW E30 325i Cabriolet

Hi all Sifus, What's the problem behind my BMW E30's power windows? There are weak & the fuse always blow off. Is it becuz of wiring or power window regulator. Pls advice & thx in advance.Cheers,

maybe the felt liner needs waxing to lessen the friction that may be causing the fuse to blow.
i would remove the window and run the motor.if fuse ok then confirm the window liners needs adjustment...

I believe moots is right, try change the rubber glide first or apply the grease.

always welcome a 'thank' if you like my post!

Wind the window down.
Remove the fastener for the window pane.
After the fastener is removed, use hand to slide the window pane up and down.
Apply grease where it is sticky. I use silicon grease as they are odourless.
It work for me when my regulator roller was cracked.
