hi,
in the last few months i noticed that the 2 rear windows only go down when controlled by driver controls, and the passenger window sometimes works, but about 85% of the time it just does not respond to the switch. all of the door switches are working (except for the drivers controller, duh..)..
my first thought is that the quad regulator is malfunctioning, but, i have no clue how to diagnose it or better yet where to find a replacement part.
any advice?

just to clarify, the rear windows go down when controlled by the driver, but not up.

and they go up and down when you operate the rear door switches?

From what you say, its the driver's switch cluster that is at fault. Apart from the wd40 route, you will not be able repair it .Its electronically complex.
Go to a wrecker and get another one for $20
