how did you determine it was bad? IIRC, power goes through the driver's side switch to the passenger side switch. If its not moving, try to clean the swtiches 1st?

All you have to do to clean the window switches is pull the little switch holder panel they are in out and disconnect the wire plugs from the back of the switches.

Unscrew them... make sure to not break the assembly they reside in... its a pain to get a good used one!

Once you have the individual switches out, youll notice the little copper switch is covered by the black rocker(its the part you push on) youll notice 2 little tabs on each side that retain the white piece to the black piece... just gently pry between them to separate them!

once they are apart, get some good contact cleaner and have at them! I'll try to find my spares to give you a better idea of how it should look when torn down. [dance]
