Default electric window problem saph.

3 of my electric windows work and the passenger rear does not , now i know this is not the end of the world but i'm changing door cards and thought i'd take a look while the card is off , i've tested the motor and that works fine with the window going up and down , now am i right in thinking that each window will have its own relay ? if so where are they hidden ? or may it be somethng else ?

Take the switches apart and give them a clean up. They will work perfect after.

Plus to check the switch, swap the two rear ones over and see if the fault follows.

It must be the front swich that is faulty then. Clean the front and back switches up and they will work.
