Driver window got stuck down

When mine failed I could tell it was the switch because it was first working intermittently - and it was having trouble only in one direction, going up, not down. Changed it myself, quite easy really. Bought the assembly on ebay for about $50. It comes as a complete assembly of all 4 switches.

Window switch
If you are any good fixing things, this can actually be fixed by yourself. I am on my third one, and after this last go-round I found the instructions on-line for how to fix it. 1st switch was under warranty, but then no. Replacement bought on-line does not appear to be any different and the 3rd is the same, so I do not know what they changed in the design because they all look the same on the inside to me. The fix is easy if you find the instructions. Otherwise just buy one. Let me tell, this is one complicated design for a simple switch module, but the repair procedure is straight forward.
