Electric window switch
My drivers side window switch just popped off (power windows)... and I recovered the tiny spring that is in it, and the actual switch itself. Is there more to it?
I cannot figure out how to put it back on again with just that spring... ther is a little yellow circle right next to a pivoting piece, and I cannot seem to make the window go up at all.
I need it to go up! Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Does it look like this? I read a while back someone drilled a hold in the swtich cover & used a screw to replace the plastic arm.
These are on ebay from time to time. I bought a new swtich console for ~$100 from Mazda, but it was a re-engineered part that permanently fixes the problem.
Check my original thread on this too. Someone posted a 2nd fix:

yep, looks like that... but it still has a little pivoting inside that makes me think it ought to work. The actual plastic switch that you pull on to put power to the window was good... but when I was trying to put it back on the little thin extension to it snapped off, so I'm not sure what will happen.
My problem: I need the window to roll up, just roll up. I don't care if it can't go down for a while, but I need it to go up.
Thanks for the reply!

connect the contatct with a small screw driver in side teh switch to make it go back up but mostl likly when it poped apart it shorted out and blew the fuse atleast when i broke mine it did
if you cant get it to go back up check your fuse
