I think most of us have had some kind of trouble with the power windows. Mine stuck pretty badly when I got my car so I went through them. I found that the switch contacts were completely covered with carbon. I cleaned them and found that the contact buttons were pretty much worn away. I got new switches and found that it worked reliably but was pretty lazy. I cleaned the old grease and gunk out of the cable, cable track, regulator and window track. I lubed the cable, cable track and reg with lithium spray grease and tri-flow. I used silicon spray lube in the window track. Then, just to be thorough, I took the cover off the motor and cleaned everything in there. It seemed like a lot of work at the time, but I'm sure it will work for 10-15 years or so before I have to look at it again. :)

Got those from another thread (https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generation-specific-1986-1992-17/power-windows-496680/)... hope it helps. I'm planning on fixing up my power windows when the weather gets better.

high current draw is caused by dirty tracks/regulator or a trigger happy finger holding the switch longer than necessary, it is not the switches fault.
