Is there a known issue with window switches? 07-13 Silvy

Is there a known issue with the drivers door window controls? 

 

My 2011 Silvy ext cab had an issue where I couldn't roll down the back drivers side window with the driver controls.  It would work with the switch in the actual rear door though.  I never got that problem tracked down the problem.

 

My 2013 Silvy ext cab has the same problem.  I can roll down the passenger door with the switch on the passenger door, but not with the drivers door controls.  The drivers side rear window does the same thing intermittently.  

 

Is there a known spot where those wires tend to break or lose connection with this model?  Seems odd that two different trucks would have the same exact issue.

 

Thanks in advance.

Thanks. I'll give this a shot when I get home.  I do know that I have replaced the switches and it didn't help before.

My '10 had issues and I followed the video and didn't have any issues after that.

If new switches didn't do the job, need to move to checking the wiring.

I was thinking that.  Just wondering if there was a specific spot I can check first that is prone to problems.  My best guess is the spot where they go from the door to the body.

Thanks everyone.  Cleaning those connection points worked perfectly.  They didn't even look corroded at all.  Alcohol swab did the trick.

 

Thanks again.
