1998 VW Jetta GLS Manual Trans. The driver side power window won't roll down. It was working until today, but the "one touch down/up" feature has been sporadic. From the same switch the front passenger window won't up but will roll down. The passenger side switch works fine; passenger window goes up and down. For now. The drivers side rear window won't roll up or down from dash switch or door switch. The passenger side rear window switch works from dash and from rear switch. Any ideas how I might be able to fix this? I am most interested in getting the driver's side front window working correctly.

Hello. Thanks for the donation. Much appreciated

I would start by checking or replacing the main window switch. Check you have power to and from the switch in all positions?. Also check you have power going to the window motor and control module !
