    Driver's Switch:Β 

    The driver's switch is combined with the control unit so you cannot isolate the switch to test it. Instead, do POWER WINDOW MASTER SWITCH INPUT TESTΒ  . If the tests are normal, the driver's switch must be faulty.

    NOTE: RESETTING THE POWER WINDOW CONTROL UNITΒ  if you disconnect the switch or replace it.
