    Passenger window (electric) not working. It's a Toyota dyna o4. Switches are easily accessible, but how do I work out which part to replace. Drivers window is ok. Hope this makes sense.
    Thanks

    The window lock button behind the switch on the drivers door is hardly pressed is it?

    No tried that. The odd time it would take a few presses to engage it. Think its a straight forward swap. This is drivers side. Maybe the whole unit??

    It’s called a master switch and is all one unit.

    I’d try holding the passenger switch while jiggling the lock button. Just to confirm that’s the part that’s gone.

    Thanks will give it a go. Presume it's a standard enough item in the spares parts dept.???if I have to wait a few days is it easy enough to raise up window?? Door panel off and disengage motor??
    Also best/quickest route to get part, Toyota dealership or local motor factor??

    Toyota or Hino dealer.

    Should be able to manually operate the window as you say.

    There’s the outside chance it isn’t the switch of course. Check the wiring between the door and body.
