my passenger quarter window ceased to stop moving up the other day and really pissed me off. i knew it was a switch problem because i tried running power through it and was getting mixed signals. SO. i went to the atoyot dealership to get a new one, bam 60 bones. Of course being the cheap person i am declined and cryed all the way home. I took apart the switch to see if there was anything i could do, well, i guess atoyot makes sphucked up switches out of plastic. this is kind of hard to explain but when the current runs through the switch it generated heat. this heat melted the plastic at the place where you push the up part of the switch. well lucky for me i found this convenient little spring in the switch stretched it out and got it to work again. so, in conclusion, phuck atoyot and their bitch switches.

He's saying that Toyota makes cheap switches with plastic and it melted due to heat generated by the electricity.
