Power Window Switch

Power Window Switch
Sometimes the power windows on the driver's front and passenger rear do not work at the master switch on driver's door. Rocking the buttons back and forth work at times. If I use the switch on the passenger door the window works normally. Are those separate switches? And does the bezel pop off to access the switches?

Yes, they are two separate switches. The 'master' has one for each window along with a disconnect to disable all the other switches. I don't think any smart box is involved in the passenger window operation, so it should be a simple switch. Most have a snap-on bezel, or covers over fasteners. I think the switch is a snap-fit into the door panel, but it is model year dependent.
Most times, you can remove the inner door handle, and arm rest fasteners, and then pop the door panel off, gaining enough room to disconnect the multi-wire connector to the switch. You may be able to clean the old switch, or get a replacement. I would note that I had to replace the power seat switch on an 07, and it was $$.$$, and was $$$.$$ at some sources. Made of unobtainium, I think, that or they really were proud of that switch. I think the window switch would be more, but who knows.
The switches are DPDT, swapping + and - connections as they are operated to reverse the motor as needed.

Door switch, operating window
I would take off the door panel to get a real look and make sure it's not the assembly motor that holds & lifts the window up & down. These pieces of **** are horribly made to fail, plastic body's with a metal cap that will pop off or something inside will brake giving you a warning that it's on it's final farewell before taken a **** in your wallet & pissing you the **** off even more cause the other back passenger will follow the same fate. Be prepared for your front one's to add on somewhere down the line of more genius thought of equipment made to fail you dishing out more $$$ on **** that they purposely put into play so we feed on the quantity of parts that keep their greedy *** hands in our pocke
