Question Problem with Window Switch

Alright so my driver side window switch breaks so I had to glue it back so the plastic part so it moves the little mechanism under it. That failed so I have it all stripped down to the microchip. Now when I plugged it back in to see if the windows work, the driver side works but now the passenger side doesn't work! Could this be cuz of the fact that my driver side switch has a malfunction for the passenger side switch? At first I figured that it would be ok for now since I could open the window from the passenger side and its not working. Anyone had this problem before?

I think it also needs to make contact in the default position. Save yourself some trouble, call Malloy and get a new switch.

the passenger side is routed through the drivers side, so both need to be in working order to put the passenger window down.

I know this isn't the case since I tried pressing the switch back and forth to see the response.

Buy a new switch. Happened to me recently and all the little tricks didn't work. Well, at least your driver's side window wasn't stuck down. [sarcasm]Boy, that was fun on the streets of Miami.[/sarcasm]
