1996 850 Left Rear Window Master Switch Won't Close? 850

Hello All,

So the master switch can open the left rear window, but it can't close it?
I have to reach back and close it myself... is it a matter of cleaning contacts?
I've never seen a switch partially fail.

Any an all ideas welcome!

Cheers,

It's probably full of coffee or Coke. With the ignition off, rock that switch about 20-50 times to try to clean up the contact.
