Default Driver side window switch help

Hey guys, i have a 95 honda accord lx. My power window switch on my driver side which controls the up and down movement of my passenger side has a problem. It puts my passenger side window down, but when i push the switch to bring the window up, it simply dosen't work. No other window switch in my car has this issue. If anybody has any idea on how to fix this it would be much appreciated.
Thanks
-Brian

Okay, to clarify: Passenger side window goes down; but , does not come up with either driver's side master switch and passenger side switch?

If so, take off passenger side door panel, unplug the window regulator/motor connector and apply direct 12 volt power to the motor side 2-P connector. This will determine if the window regulator/motor is faulty. Connecting positive (+) and ground (-) to the 2-P connector terminals one way makes it go up, reversing the power connections make it go down. Only do this briefly, as you do not want to burn out the motor if it was good in the first place.

On Hondas, the regulator/motor is generally replaced as an assembled unit.

Edit: I realized I just misread that no other switch does this. So, the window goes up with the passenger side switch? Then try cleaning, the driver's side switch with something like quick drying electrical contact cleaner.

Yes, correct, passenger side switch goes up and down, just the drivers side switch to the passenger side. I will try what you suggested, thank you very much!
