OK so finished replacing both my rear window motor bushings. Got all back together but now they won't go down with the switch on the rear door. But they will go down using the master switch on the drivers door. They go up just fine using the switch on the rear doors but just wont go down using the switch. And its not the lock out switch that keeps the rear windows from opening or closing. Both window will only work going down using the driver panel switch.
 






Sounds like the switch on the rear door is bad. You could try taking it apart and cleaning the contact areas to see if that improves things. Good luck!
 






The thing is it worked before I took it apart. Both switches not working on each side seems to coincidental. I was thinking I still have it unscrewed from the part that attaches to the door panel. Its not a grounding issue cause the door panel is all plastic
