Default Rear power window problem

Hi.

My car’s rear power window won’t go down or open if I use the control or button on the driver’s side. I don’t know what’s the name but on the driver’s side, it used to work. It closes (going up) but it won’t open. If I use the control on the rear passenger side, it works; it opens and closes. I can open the window on front passenger side but not both rear windows. Front driver’s window works fine.
What could be the problem?

If the window goes up & down using the switch on the actual door, but not via the drives master switch, then the fault is 99% with the drivers master switch.

Do you think spraying contact cleaner on main switch helps?

Wouldn't hurt to try.

I'm having the exact same issue with my rear driver's side window. Works fine from local switch. Will close from driver's control switch, but not open. Where you able to resolve this issue?

Unfortunately no. I have opened the switch from the driver's side but I don't have that tiny screw. I don't know what it's called but the screw has so many points. I saw a video on YouTube and it's quite easy to follow. So I haven't fixed mine.
Sorry for the very late reply. There's no auto email for replies. Maybe it's not in the mobile view of this forum since I am usually using a mobile phone
