rear power window switch

has anyone had a problem with your back window? i have to hook up a circuit tester to my key when its in the ignition and then put the pointed end of the tester on the up or down contact.

Thanks

Sounds like what you are doing is bypassing all of the ground safety switches. Pretty ingenious. Ill have to remember that one.

Mine has been getting fussy lately. I have to wiggle the connections in the back or just punch the center console haha.

Just take the whole switch out of the console and see whats up.

Theres four relays on a circut board in the back that I ended up replacing since my window tended to go down but did not want to go back up.
