super annoying rear window issue

Picked up a 03 CL 55 with 120k for $5,200 from a dealer in Nashville. Woooo!!!

Only needed a crank pulley and some coilovers..

Anyways. Pass. Rear window never worked. Took door panel off, got a new motor. New and old motor work out of the car when power is put to them. Motor puts window up when direct power is put to it. Will not work with the switch... Got a different rear window module, nothing.

Took the rear switches out, they both work. Window will not work from front or rear switch. Possible that the front switch is bad and causing them both not to work? I wanna get my door panel back on!!

Also, anyone know a mercedes radio guru in Miami? Typical radio not giving out sound issue... And the PO has messed with it by trying to bypass the cables in the trunk.. I really don't wanna mess with it.

Wheels are in the works, leaning towards some lorinser RSK 2's

It sounds like the front switch is bad. Can you plug the driver's side switch in instead to see if that fixes it?

Have you tried putting 12v to the motor to verify the motor works?
