Bad power window switch?

The window switch on my front passenger door will only roll the window down. It does nothing when lifting up, or at best, you can sometimes hear the window motor try to engage very weakly.

If I use the switch on the driver's door, I can roll the front passenger window up and down without issue.

If the front passenger lifts up on the window switch at the same time I lift the switch on the driver's door, the window won't move. When the passenger lets go of the switch, the window will roll up.

The window lock button behaves as you'd expect. The rear windows and switches operate normally as does the driver window.

I'm thinking the switch is blown - perhaps one of these will do the trick?

I am having the exact same issue. Along with Both Back windows too. Haven't looked into it yet but planned on it very soon so I would like to know as well. Another thing on my List

Switch ordered and on its way. I shall report back on whether or not the front passenger window gremlin goes away...
 
I had the exact same issue with my front passenger window. $6 switch from eBay solved the problem. Only takes a few minutes to swap it out and you'll be good to go.

Is there a link somewhere on the board to the changeout process? I have the same problem with the same window except that it got worse and worse and now the switch on the door doesn't work at all so I have to use the driver's switch to put the window up and down. If it's easy, I'll do it myself.
 
Very easy to do yourself. I think there are 2 screws and then just he clips holding the door panel on. And the little triangle piece up by the mirror needs to come off. I used instructions for replacing the speakers to find how to remove the door panel. You should be able to find it in a search for that but if not I'll see if I can find the link when I get home.
