I think each switch is unique to that position. I bought what was
supposed to be a drivers window switch but the pins were not correct so
I got one from the dealer/ . Ah, Don told me the fronts will not
interchange with the rears so I know what I will do - swap console
switches side to side - to see if the window will lift. (Like you said) ;-)
I took the door panel off a little while ago and found the cable to be
intact and tight. So it's not the cable ;-^ unless I'm wrong of course.
So I'm off to the garage now. BTW, my legs and foot are screwed up
(NEVER, NEVER, have ortho surgery unless it is absolutely the ONLY way
to fix things - which in my case it was and my bones are screwed up) so
I limit my stair climbing to an absolute minimum. (That explains why I
haven't been more explanatory concerning your suggestions.)
Then I'll switch the switches.
Thanks Gang,

Larry,
I'm a frugal guy, in your shoes I'd start with the console switch (swap
switches around to see if the problem follows the switch). If the switch
swapping doesn't resolve the problem, then you'll need to remove the door
panel / liner and see what's going on. On my '95 sedan, both rear windows
failed with broken sliders about a month apart, and in both cases I just
replaced the broken slider. If I can replace parts and not the entire
assembly, that is what I like to do.
You will need to remove the regulator assembly from the door to repair the
slider, if that is the course of action you decide on.
I only posted that eBay link for the picture, no idea if the actual
regulator is a quality part or cheap junk. LOTS of cheap junk out there,
caveat emptor.

Max, what do youy think about the regulator? Would you replace the whole
thing or parts? Also, if I only hear a soft bump when trying to lower the
glass (and nothing when trying to raise the glass), does that indicate a
regulator or the slider or cable?
BTW, if I failed to mention it, the glass is in the full down position.
