Rear passenger window does not open/close with one touch button... It only opens/closes by a few inches at a time...so I need to press/pull the button repeatly to close/open?

I know if you pull the switch up to the top then pull for more than 1 sec it should reset the window but it is not solving the problem...

Any ideas will be gratefully received.

Thanks,

A guess is that the mechanism has got stiff, and the motor is cutting out as it thinks something is jammed in the window. Try some window lube on the guides, it's usually white PTFE based stuff in an aerosol.

You probably know better than me, but just in case you're looking for something that doesn't exist - Do the rear windows have 'one touch'?
