Default window switch

My driver side window button seems to be going bad. ( I have to push it several times before the window will go down)
Are you guys doing any "repairs" to these, or just sticking a new switch in?
Thanks

Smile window switch repair

You can do a seach on this forum for instructions on how to disassemble the switch and scrape off some carbon from contacts that almost always fixes the problem. The step by step with pictures instruction is excellant. If you can't find it let me know.

Thanks
I found this one, ad it refers to the window repair, but it looks like he is taking out the lock button

update for "searchers"
I didn't really see any good articles, so I just pulled the switch out and sanded the contacts and it works perfect.
