Default power window question.

My pass power window now has issues, some times it works, some times it dose not, turnig off and on the ignition some times helps, fuses are all good, and it doesnt matter if your sitting in the passneger area or opperating the power window switch of the master on the drivers door pannel.

When the passenger power windows do work, its off the passenger switch, than the master will work.

Check your switch and motor connections. If you don't have a bad connection, might just be the motor starting to go.

The switches will pop out without removing the door panels.

I've had to put some dielectric grease on the terminals on the switch and on the plug because they would just stop working. I could pop the whole switch out wiggle the plug and it would work. Ever since i put the grease on its been working like a charm.

This was happening to my friends windows. I just popped off the switch from the door panel and replaced it with one from a wrecked truck and it works fine now.
