'73 240d driver window won't roll down, think it is window switch
Hi all,
My driver side window does not go down (it is all the way up right now). However, all my other windows go up and down just fine. yes, they are electric.
I do not think it is the window itself (just had it replaced last year), rather the window switch is stuck or jammed. I say this, because when you press the switch to make the window go up or down, it has a loud "click" noise. All the other windows switches do this, except the driver window when going down.
Saying the above, how can I take apart the window switches to see if something is stuck or what else could be the issue? I did try to take apart th window switch console, but could not pry it off, and I don't want to break anything, so any assistance would be great (see image). Thanks in advance
