[V8] Elec Windows Don't Work

[Dave Saad]

Just an FYI on my experience with electric windows -
Both of my rear windows sometimes don't go either up or down.  Finally  
one of them would not go down no matter how much I yelled at it.
Debugging the problem revealed a bad switch - which is odd since these  
windows never get used from the rear seat switches. (I am usually  
alone in this car)
I took the offending switch apart and gently scraped the contact  
surface and it is now fine.  I think that lack of use is actually  
harder on the switches than over us.
Proof of this observation is that my Explorer had a similar problem  
and repair recently.  Repair cost = $00.00 in both cases.

ymmv
