5k Window Terror, Help me please



    Sister came home for a couple days to visit.  I have a window motor
ready for her 5k.  Get down the business today and get the rear door all
opened.  Take the old motor out and toss the new one in.  Hookup the switch
and turn the key.  Try the switch, nothing, hmm.  Ahh, the rear window
lockout switch is up, pop it down.  The lockout switch will not rest in a
down position, so I pull the main switch cluster and tape it down.  Try
again, only goes down but not up with rear switch.  Try the main cluster
switch, nothing.  Take my spare 80/90 window switch and pop it on, same
thing.  So I try the other rear window, only goes down with it's switch.
Main cluster switch works up and down.  So I use my extra 80/90 switch and
bingo, works up and down.  I had to turn the switch around, twist the
harness, and take the top 2 prong harness and flip it so that the switch
works and looks proper.
    Now the right rear window only goes up, but I can flip the top 2 sprong
harness and then it goes down when I press the switch to go up.  Bad switch
right?  Although I tried the extra switch and the main cluster switch and
even then it only went one way.  What is the deal here?  Bad wiring, or
picky switch?  Motor is good.

Thanks!
