The driver's side power window on the sliding door will go up and down fine with the controls on the door itself.

But if I use the controls on the driver's front door, it will only go down and the up doesn't work. The controls on the front driver door work fine for all other windows up and down, it's just that one on the driver sliding door it won't go up.

Is this a faulty control switch or wiring on the front driver door for that one window? Is there a way to clean the contacts or is it better to just replace?

More than likely this is a door switch issue. So, the way to confirm this is to check the voltage coming from the switch when you are pressing the button.

Here is a video that will help with this type of testing:

I am attaching the wiring diagram below of the switch but basically, we want to just see if there is voltage coming out on the purple wire that is going to the left rear power switch.

So, the way this works is the master switch sends power to the other switch which is a pass through to the motor.

So, we need to see if the power is even leaving the master switch and go from there.
