A Dorman power window switch sends current to the window motor when a button is pressed, which raises or lowers the glass. Signs this part may need replacing include a window that does not respond, works only some of the time, or moves in just one direction, as well as a button that sticks or is broken. The window motor, regulator or wiring can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing. If a failed switch is the cause, this switch replaces it at the front left position.
