it thinks there's an obstruction, lub the runners as a starting point.

ok mate cheers.

The windows have a safty system to stop fingers and young heads being trapped .. 

Sounds like yours is "sensing" a restriction and thinks there is something in the way.

First thing to do is lubricate the runners,  best thing is PTFE powder, if not "Tailors Chalk", in desperation Talcum powder.

Don't use anything like 3-in-1 or WD40 .. any liquid lubricant will just spoil the "fur" type seal.

I've generally used silicone spray, it worked wonders on her Smarts windows too.
