Window and lock control switches (1 Viewer)

[markdrm1]

like a lot of other 80s, my window and lock switches are giving me problems. The driver side window button works slow to not at all and requires being pressed several times. The lock buttons are not working at all. I decided to take one of the switches apart and have a look. The first thing I noticed was that everything looks charred. Anyone know why this happens? Any ideas on what I should use to clean it off? Thanks.

I struggled for years with mine. Cleaned, bought used switches, etc. Finally sucked it up and bought a new Denso switch. saved a lot of frustration.

Thank you for realizing and doing a search.

I bought the Switch Doctor unit and has been trouble-free for 3+ years.
