Nissan Maxima: Repairing Power Window Switches

Greetings,

On my '89 Maxima I've had ongoing problems with the master power window
switch assy on the front driver side.
Has anyone out there figured out a way of repairing these things?
They're expensive and I'm on my 3rd one.

Any help appreciated,
Thanx,
Mike

I just bought my first replacement from a junk yard. They let me install it
right in the parking lot before I paid for it. It worked fine, so I gave
them the $25 they wanted. Seemed like a cheap fix to me (it's $125 at a
dealer).

I have removed and completely disassembled it trying to clean it up so the
driver's window would work. It did work for about 3 months, and then failed
for good.

Find one at a junk yard if you can. '89-'94 SE and GXE should all be the
same for this part. You'll get the entire assembly, buttons and all. I
mixed and matched the best looking buttons and put them on the new switch.
Works great, and looks better than it did.
