I just re-read your message and thought that I had better clarify. When I was trying to find out where the buzz was coming from, I thought the window switch that controls the driver side window was bad...so to try to confirm my theory, I took the driver side power window switch and attached it to the passenger side window and vice versa....the driver side switch worked with the passenger side window no problem...and...the passenger side switch did nothing for the driver side window...except for make the window motor buzz...so....in essence, both of my window switches are are in perfect working order....

you can try taking a jumper wire and go to a KNOWN GOOD GROUND and then to the motor...if no joy try jumping 12 volt to switch....use care on jumping...some p/w use DPDT switchs...they reverse the pos/neg...other words ..one switch position a wire could be a ground another position the wire could have voltage

Thanks for checking in! I have not had time to dig into the issue. I am planning on doing it first thing Saturday morning! I'll let you know what I find...if anything!

I really hope it is something simple...but...with my luck...it will probably require stripping out the wiring harness and looking for a bad wire....
