Power window issues.

[XJman]

So I've got a weird intermittent power window issue. All windows besides the driver work from their respective switches yet only the rear windows work from the master switch. However if it's cold out they all work flawlessly.

Now what's strange is when I pull the window switches like I would be raising the windows I can hear the regulator click. Yet if I push it down I get nothing.

It's been pouring rain and I've not had time to pull the door panel so I've not done a great deal of diagnosis. I was just wondering ahead of time if anyone has had this issue. I find a lot about windows not going up or only the master switch working but I've got the opposite.

I had almost the same problem with my 2013. The master switch was bad. Good thing is, no need to pull the door panel. The master switch itself will pull out of the door panel. I got a new switch but while I waited for shipping, I took the original switch apart and cleaned the contacts with a cotton swab and alcohol. I put it back together and it's been working ever since. The new one is here on standby when/if I ever need it.

Awesome, thank you. Sadly it's one of the first things I check when I buy a car but considering it works when cold and I bought it on a -5° day I wasn't aware it was a problem. I'll give that a shot.

Was there a particular master you bought? I was just going to grab what ever Rock Auto had.

I got the Mopar Oem switch. When you take your switch apart, be sure to watch the two front window switches. They have several plastic pieces that interlock. It would be a bear to figure them out if they fell out all at once.

Alright. Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully I can get it done this weekend.

Just an update for future searchers. Cleaning the unit solved my problem.
