    The passenger switch works going up and down. Doesn’t work from the master switch from the drivers side going down but does going up. Now when i hit the switch going down i can hear a click but nothing happens. So i swapped out the drives master switch thinking that was it. But it wasn’t. So i ordered a front passenger switch to see if that will do it. Is there some kind of relay that they talk to each other and both need to be working? Not sure why they only work going in certain directions. The rear passenger switch does the same thing. But doesn’t want to go up sometimes. At all if i play with it enough it will go up from the driver switch. Any thought or ideas?

    So i changed my passenger switch and the problem from the driver side still exists. I’m stumped haha. Any advice would be much appreciated.

    Ya it’s weird cause it works just fine from the passenger side up and down but the passenger windows will not go down from the driver switch but it will go up! Haha. I did buy a used driver switch so maybe I need to try a brand new one. I bought a motor and regulator for the back. The motor sounds kinda weak so I think that’s the problem on that one. But man the driver switch is killing me haha
