Nope.. the driver side switch works partly, and the same result using a swapped switch.

I'd check the wires from the door to wing, sounds like a break in circuit. It will be one of those jobs that you have to go through step by step checking each bit till find fault, which can be a mare, been there done that

Did you check the wiring in both door to pillar boots.. You could replace the relay for piece of mind and to be absolutely sure of the switches you could swap the driver side for passenger side.

I know you did.. but i said swap 'passenger side' for driver.. your assuming the rear driver side switch is working properly when in drivers pos.. ! It's a long shot i know but you need to elliminate it at least.. I would have.

Hi
I think the switches are different in the front and the rear, My GTI's Passenger rear window went down not up. i swapped the switch for the opposite side and nothing happened at all. i had to remove the door card and take out the reg, i found the plastic clip mentioned here was worn out.
i repaired with a small piece of metal. works great now. Id invest in some new switches.
