Got one, main switch works as said, othre side is 95% dead. Colors are mixed up, but thats details.
One thing, when Im on the main switch, pressing up for passenger, the passenger clicks, and the solid yellow wire gives power. Other than that, no mix of things work. Power was on, no constant 12v anywhere in passenger.
I tried switching the regulator, no dice, and it was regulator+motor. Tried switching out the passenger side switch box, nothing. I think it's the wiring between main switch and passenger, or something of the sort. Any ideas on how to check/replace that?

That looks fairly simple (aside from the multi-component switches) I'll try to remember to look at it later, but at a glance it looks like a bad pass. side switch could make it not work, even with a good driver's side switch.

I kind of ignored the clicking last time, but if you've replaced the pass. switch I think the problem is most definitely the drivers side switch. You should hear a click in both the up and down functions on the pass. side when controlling from the drivers side.
Otherwise a wire is loose somewhere... There are two connectors in line, MD01 and MD02, somewhere, one may have come loose. On hmaservice there is a connector location index, can look up where there are and check them out. I'll get around to it in a day or two if no one else does.

Bingo. If you can get intermittent operation by messing with switches, you have bad switches. They shouldn't cost too much at a junkyard, or ask one of the members here who are parting out their cars.
